Hi Diwakar,

For CAT 2019, their mentioned criteria is a person of any age can apply. He should have passed a bachelor's degree in any subject or field. And also about the percentage required it is minimum 50% for general and minimum 45% for SC/ST. So since you have a 50% you are eligible and can apply for the same.

GOOD LUCK
