FWIW. It occurs > 900 times in the Lichess Masters database.
9...c7c6 is the 2nd most popular choice besides 9...Nc6

Your line is OK, but the main line (and by far the most popular) is 7... Nc6, playing a regular KID. After ed4 Nd4, the position resembles a Maroczy Bind structure, but with the black pawn on c7 instead of e7.

While I'm sure you can catch some white playes off-guard with this, the regular 7...Nc6 King's Indian is much better, and much more interesting
i am aggresive player i do not like slav or any other such openings i played nc6 but my opponent would be always prepared for it
check chessable free course by kamil plickta well i am not sure should i play it or not so i posted in forum
7...exd4 instead of 7...Nc6 is fine and used to be preferred by Bronstein and Dorfman
When Kasparov and Radjabov turned away from the King's Indian Defence, they turned to the Queen's Gambit Accepted
