Dear Sona, yes you can apply for CAT even with backlog. There is certain procedure for it.
  • You just need to select "Yes" to the question registration form that asks:
     "Are you in the final year of Bachelor's Degree"
  • The only rule that exists here is you have to score atleast 50%.
  • The certificate from your isuuing University should be submitted before June 2019. Or you can submit a certificate issued by Principal/Registrar of University before 30th June--that would certify you as you have taken the supplementary examination and the results are awaited.

Hope this helps :)

Hi Sona
You are eligible to apply for CAT exam if you have backlog in any subject but I suggest you to first clear your backlogs because if student have backlogs in any subject then their marksheet have stars in front of backlog subject. If you are selected in CAT and get a call from top 5 IIMs then at the time of interview, it will create a problem to you.
That's why I suggest you to first clear your backlog and then apply for CAT.
That's why it is better choice to first clear your backlogs otherwise as you asked, you can apply for CAT exam with backlogs.
I hope this information is helpful for you.
