Earlier the Admit Card was to be issued on January 5, 2016.

All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE) will be conducting the CMAT 2016 a National Level Common Management Admission Test (CMAT) to select suitable students for admission in management programmes for academic year 2016-17.  Since 2016, CMAT will no longer be twice a year exam as it used to be. There was no first CMAT 2016 in September 2015 and the testing process has become a yearly exercise now. There wouldn’t be an opportunity to improve your scores in second CMAT incase the first CMAT does not award you good scores. As such you may not be able to send in your 2 scores for consideration of the better one at the B school from now onwards.
