Candidates could submit objections through the official CAT website from 6:00 PM that day until 11:55 PM on December 5, 2024. That window has closed; the final answer keys were scheduled for December 16, 2024.
When was the CAT 2024 answer key released?
A CAT media release dated November 29, 2024, scheduled the provisional answer keys for December 3. CAT 2024 itself was held on November 24, 2024. The release schedule and objection deadline applied to that exam cycle, not to a current CAT answer-key process.
How the objection process worked
- Candidates who had completed the test went to the Objection Management link on the official CAT website, iimcat.ac.in.
- They logged in with their CAT application ID and password.
- They submitted any objections during the stated window: December 3, 2024, from 6:00 PM through December 5, 2024, at 11:55 PM.
The notice said objections sent through other channels would not be accepted. The specified online window is over, so objections for CAT 2024 can no longer be submitted.
Provisional answer key versus final answer key
| Stage | CAT 2024 timing | Could candidates submit objections? |
|---|---|---|
| Provisional answer key | Scheduled for December 3, 2024 | Yes, through the Objection Management link from 6:00 PM on December 3 until 11:55 PM on December 5 |
| Final answer key | Scheduled for December 16, 2024 | No; the objection window had closed |
CAT’s December 16, 2024, media release reported 405 objections across three sections and three shifts. Its decision table showed “No change” for the objections and scheduled the final answer keys for December 16.
