The Indian Institute of Management, Calcutta (IIM-C) on August 29 issued an alert for CAT 2024 aspirants against some fraudulent websites impersonating to be the official CAT 2024 website.
IIM Calcutta on Thursday issued a release stating that the “CAT Centre has been made aware of a fraudulent website posing as a website for CAT registration, targeting applicants and soliciting personal information.”
“We urge all applicants and stakeholders to be cautious and visit only our official website and not fall prey to spurious or malicious websites engaging in pharming/phishing that resemble the official CAT website,” the official release alerted students.
— Always verify the URL and ensure it is the official website for CAT.
— Be cautious of unsecured websites asking for personal information or payments.
— Report any suspicious activity to the CAT help desk at cat2024_helpdesk@iimcal.ac.in
Common Admission Test 2024 (CAT 2024) will be a computer-based test which will be held on November 24 in three sessions. The registration process for CAT 2024 started at 10 am on August 1 and will conclude at 3 pm on September 13. Candidates must declare and maintain a valid and unique email account and a mobile phone number throughout the selection process.

Last year, a total of 91 non-IIM institutions also used the CAT score scores to grant admission to aspirants into various management programmes.
