It is not mandatory. Your CAT score will be considered for All India seats. Apart from CAT, scores of CMAT and MHA-MBA/MMS CET are also considered. CMAT score is also considered for All India seats. While MHA-MBA/MMS CET score is considered for state level as well as All India seats depending on the candidature of the candidate. Details about the same can be obtained from DTE website.
Admissions for two years MMS course are done through CAP process conducted by DTE, Maharashtra. Keep in regular touch with the DTE website.
