The plea was filed by one of the candidates ,Aditya Kumar Mallick, who had appeared in the exam, alleging that there was an unaccounted error in the answer key, which had affected his result. His plea went on to add that he had though raised objection to the provisional answer key which was released on December 3, the final answer key was released without any change and the results were declared by IIM Calcutta, that had organized the exam, hurriedly on December 19.

“The result was expected in the second week of January, 2025 and the haste in declaring the results in December speaks volume,” the plea added.

Mallick’s plea also stated that his objection was supported by distinguished experts and faculty members of various CAT coaching centres.

IIM Calcutta represented by senior advocate Arvind Nayyar had contended that the objections were already considered by the expert committee.

“... we find no reason to interfere with the results of CAT. The petition is accordingly dismissed,” justice Tara Vitasta Ganju said while pronouncing the verdict.
