As you are thinking of joining a coaching institute, it depends on your time and availability, if you can handle your academics and studies well then you can join it right now. Otherwise, go for it in the final year either weekend or weekday batches.

It all depends on you. First, grab some sample papers and get to know the syllabus. Then, decide where you stand. Coaching institutes provide 1 year full time, weekend, evening classes etc. some even can make it without coaching institutes and by self study. Start preparing, keep on solving.

The best time to start preparing for your CAT is while you are in your 2nd year as while you are in your 3rd year, you need to concentrate on your boards. You even have an option to prepare for your CAT after completing your graduation but that will be like wasting a year.
