No, once the CAT admit card is issued and the candidate is assigned a test center, they are not permitted to change the location of their CAT test center under any circumstances. It is not possible to change the test center once it has been assigned because it would cause accommodation problems because the CAT test center is assigned to candidates based on a number of variables, including the availability of seats and the number of applicants choosing a particular test center. The testing location specified on the candidate's CAT admit card is where they must appear for the exam.
