Sorry, you are not eligible to appear in the CAT with 46% marks in BCom being an OBC student. Candidates who have passed a bachelor’s degree in any discipline with at least 50% marks or equivalent CGPA are eligible to appear for the Common Admission Test (CAT). Candidates belonging to SC/ST categories need at least 45% marks in a bachelor’s degree for appearing in the CAT. Therefore, you are not eligible to appear in the CAT with 46% marks in BCom being an OBC student.

Yes, you are eligible to appear for CAT examination. CAT examination is conducted for admission in MBA course.

The eligibility to appear for admission in the course is that :-

Candidate must have passed bachelor degree from a recognised university.

Candidate must have scored minimum 50%, there is 5% relaxation for non creamy layer OBC, SC/ST etc.

So, if you do not belong to creamy layer then you are eligible to appear in examination for admission.
