It depends on the B-schools you want to join because it differs from college to college, likewise in IIM, it is totally based on CAT scores. Whereas, some colleges consider CAT, MAT, CMAT, XAT, etc.

Yes, it is one of the most important examinations to get admission in best B-schools of India. IIMs take admission on the basis of CAT percentile only. Other private institutions like IFMR, GLIM, etc. also consider CAT, XAT and CMAT for the same.

No, there are other exams as well like XAT for XLRI and XIMB - Bhubaneswar. There is SNAP for Symbiosis - Pune. Some institutes in India have started accepting GMAT as well. SP Jain - Mumbai is one such college. You can also go for state specific MBA entrance exams like CMAT. There are numerous options available for MBA aspirants.
All the best.
