Are you talking about Indian Institute of Management, Calcutta?
And it never matters what engineering field you were in or you have studied. Nor does it actually matter what your age is.
What matters is your competency, your capabilities to work efficiently as a student then as a manager and your own will to achieve something in life.
Even if your date of birth is '92, you would definitely have certain work experience that is given due weight in IIMs. Produce your work experience proof, or your pay slips, as a proof of your work.
Talk about your projects, your leadership skills, your initiatives that you took during your work tenure, in the interview when asked.
Or anything significant that you have done in your life so far after graduation to prove your worth. All you need to show in front of the interviewers is your willingness to study, work smartly and be a good learner.
Stay confident and nothing can come your way!!
All the best!!

Hi Chubarenla,
It is compulsory to appear for CAT and qualify the cutoff to join IIM Calcutta. Unfortunately you can not apply for admission in IIM Calcutta if you have not appeared for CAT this year, but you must try next year.
IIM Calcutta, provide facilities for a digital library and good internet connectivity with a good internet speed. The food provided is decent for the students. Provided a good infrastructure and course is good overall, equipped with industry-demand course are present in the curriculum.
Excellent infrastructure for the college is provided to the students. Library is one of the best when compared to other colleges. Adequate outdoor sessions and lab work. Quality of food can improve. Wi-Fi can be rated average and needs to be improvement. The Wi-Fi speed is also fluctuates some times.
According to me college has very good infrastructure is quite very good. Hostels are far better than the other colleges. There is a well-maintained library and a separate reading hall for students. Wi-Fi connection is good but some of the you have to use your own mobile data. Labs are well maintained.
