No, you don't need to apply separately for any of the new or old Indian Institutes of Management. When you fill the application form you have to fill a preference as to how many IIMs you wish to be part of. This is a one-time process which needs to be completed at the time of the application process. Based on the options that you choose and on the various admission criteria that different IIMs put up you are given a call and further process of Group Discussion/Writing Ability Test/Personal Interview process takes place. However, if you don’t want to put all your eggs in one single basket you might apply for various different institutes of international reputation like SP Jain Institute of Management and Research and various other institutes of preference. It all depends on your career preferences.

No you don't need to apply for IIM after giving CAT as CAT is conducted by IIM oy to Admission into their PGP program. So if you score well and have cutoff marks you will get call for your IIM which you have filed as preferred in your application form so no need to worry to apply separately. You will get a call based on your score, your graduation marks and your work experience all these are taken into account to give a call to applicant for GDPI process. So if you will get shortlisted you will be called automatically. Yes, you need to apply to other colleges who are also accepting the score of CAT but not for IIMs. There has been a shifting pattern in CAT, now all your graduation and work experience along with score are taken into account to give you call.

No. You don't need to apply to all IIMs separately because when you apply for the CAT exam you simultaneous apply to all IIMs. During CAT exam registration, there will be one section where you have to choose the IIMs and programs you are interested in. So, it means that you apply to IIMs when you apply for CAT exam. But please remember that you have to apply separately to other B schools like FMS, MDI Gurgaon, IMT Ghaziabad, etc. So, please take care of the other B-School application. In some cases, you have to apply to some B school even before giving your CAT exam example FMS Delhi. I hope this helps and Good Luck!
