If you belong to SC category your CAT percentile should be above 85 and if you are having 90 and above percentile you will definitely get a call from IIM.

Well, you won't be called for an interview as you have got less percentage in your 10th and 12th. An aggregate of 80% is needed to get admission in IIMs. So, even if you score 99% in CAT you won't get admission.

Hello Sanjeev,
You need to score an overall CAT percentile of 65+ and sectional percentile of 50+. However, these are just the cut-offs. Usually IIMs call candidates more having percentile more than the cut-off and give considerable weightage on 10th, 12th and graduation marks. So try scoring 85+ to secure your chances. Don't worry and give your best in the exam.
Good luck.
