Hello Aspirant,
See work experience is asked during CAT PI rounds and also it increases your chances of selection but however it is not mandatory to have . SO if you apply for CAT 2022 and also be completing your graduation by June 2022 then you might not be having any work experience so there is no any problem still you can get selected for IIMs because there are some other field of that are considered for shortlisting of candidates for IIMs. Now if you want to have work experience then you can have some work experience before CAT 2023 then you can again appear for CAT 2023.
