Hi Subhanshu,

While registering yourself for CAT exam you will find 3 options as:-

1.New candidate registration 

2.Registered candidate login

3.Registration for non-iim institutions 

So, it is pretty clear that if any candidate wishes to apply for both iim as well as non-iim institutions then they are required to register as both "new candidate" as well as "non-iim registration".

Because if you only registered usibg the new cabdidate option then you will be allowed to sit for iim's counsellings only and not for the non-iim's ones.

So, its upto you that how will be apply.

Good luck .

I would suggest you to not listen to ignorant people. If you applied little common sense and clicked that link it takes you to a page that asks the Non IIM institutions to register to get those scores. Apna bheja lagao..

Hi Subhanshu, be aware of such kind of self-obsessed people!There are alot of people out there who thinks they are super smart but ultimately sick from inside.So, don't get influence by them. If you still have any queries feel free to ask.Good luck .
