Dear Amit, the eligibility criteria says tjat a Candidate should have completed his Bachelor's degree with a minimum aggregate of 50%. It is 50% for General Category and its 45% for Reserved Categories. Now OBC has a certain reservation and so it falls under Reserved Categories. So you are eligible to appear for CAT based on your Bachelor's degree. CAT is for admission to PG courses and the basic eligibility remains Bachelor's degree. Which means anything additional is additional and can help you in the Academic profile while being shortlisted for WAT and PI.

Hello,
A candidate is eligible to appear in CAT 2019 if he/she holds a Bachelor's Degree with at least 50% marks or equivalent CGPA. The candidates belonging to Scheduled Caste (SC), Scheduled Tribe (ST) and Differently Abled (DA) categories, need at least 45% marks.
I hope this helps.
