Reading section in CAT and GMAT are quite similar. Then, there is a sentence correction section in GMAT, which is different than CAT. Critical reasoning questions for GMAT are not at all covered in CAT. Also, GMAT paper is more time intensive as compared to CAT.

It depends and varies from b-school to b-school. And every year criteria changes.
B-schools like IIT delhi, IIT Kgp, IIT Roorkee shortlist on basis of work ex, past acads and CAT percentile.
While colleges like IITB and IITD have cutoffs around 99 and 98 respectively, IITKgp, IITK, IITM and IITR have it around 95.
Be it work experience or no work experience, you can always show why you are a good candidate. The most important thing that I learnt was that they are looking for a reason to to select you not to fail you.
Being a student of IITR i can assure you its one of the best b schools to aim for.
