CAT 2026 correction window : What can candidates edit?
The correction facility is not an opportunity to reopen the entire application form. Candidates will be able to modify only the fields specifically made available by IIM Indore.The editable fields include:
- Photograph
- Signature
- Test city preferences
Candidates who notice an error in any of these fields should use the correction window to make the required changes and carefully review the revised application before submitting it. IIM Indore has clarified the limited nature of the edit facility, with the same three categories identified for correction.
Personal and academic details remain locked
Candidates cannot use the correction window to alter several important details entered during registration. These include the candidate’s name, date of birth, registered email address, mobile number, category, and academic information.Details relating to Class 10, Class 12, and graduation records are therefore required to be entered carefully during the original application process. Candidates who have concerns regarding non-editable information should refer to the instructions and official contact details available on the CAT website rather than attempting to modify locked fields.The limited correction facility means candidates should not assume that every error in the submitted form can be rectified later.
