CAT Result Date 2020
IIM Indore has officially provided the CAT 2020 result date to be any date in 2nd week of January 2021, or by it. However as per our predictions, the result date would be a date between 03 January 2021 and 11 January 2021. And the date with highest probability of result declaration is 09 January 2021.
However, a lot will also depend on the date of release of official answer keys, and the last date of objection.
When will IIM Indore declare CAT 2020 results? This is the biggest question on the minds of MBA aspirants at the moment. Whereas the official notices and brochures say that the result of CAT 2020 exam will be announced in the second week of January 2021, a more specific date can be predicted going by past year trends. And maybe, IIM I will announce the date and time themselves soon.
