Hello,
Yes, you should notify the CAT authorities about the change in your category eligibility. Once updated, you will be considered as a General category candidate. This might impact the cutoffs and the reservation benefits you would have initially been eligible for, but it ensures compliance with the rules and maintains your integrity in the admissions process.
Because, If your family's income has crossed the limit of Rs. 8 lakh per annum for the current year, which is the threshold for qualifying under the Non-Creamy Layer (NCL) OBC category, then you would no longer be eligible for the reservation benefits under the NCL OBC category.
You should consider the fact that,
During Verification : If your family's income details are reviewed during the admissions or verification stage, and it is found that you do not qualify under the NCL OBC category, there could be serious consequences, such as being disqualified from the process. Being proactive and transparent avoids these complications.
Hope it helps !

Hello,
A blurry signature on your CAT admit card may raise concerns, as it could be difficult for authorities to verify your identity. However, if the rest of the admit card details, such as your photograph and personal information, are clear and accurate, it might not cause an immediate issue. It's advisable to ensure that your signature is clear during future document submissions.
But if your signature is still recognizable, even if it's slightly blurry, it should generally not cause a major issue. As long as the exam authorities can identify your signature, they may accept it. However, it's always best to ensure that all details on your admit card are clear to avoid any potential problems during the exam.

Yes, you can certainly attempt the CAT exam with a fractured leg, but there are a few practical considerations to help make the experience smoother. Since CAT is a computer-based test (CBT) and requires candidates to be seated for a few hours, it's essential to ensure you’re comfortable during this time. To manage discomfort, consider arranging seating adjustments or leg support if needed. You may also need assistance getting to the exam center and moving around, as most exam centers may not allow additional mobility devices unless pre-arranged.
The CAT exam authorities generally don’t have special accommodations specifically for fractured limbs, but they do provide support for candidates with disabilities. You could reach out to the exam organizers or your designated exam center to discuss any specific needs, such as seating arrangements. Also, be mindful of pain management strategies; consult your doctor for guidance on managing pain during the exam and consider adjusting your study posture to prevent strain.
Ultimately, with careful planning and by reaching out for any necessary accommodations, it is entirely possible to successfully attempt CAT with a fractured leg.
