No sorry it's not possible. AICTE rule says 50 % minimum for general category.

Hi Abhirup. Frankly speaking you have a good score in MAT but less Percentage in graduation is a worry. Some companies do give importance to these criteria and some do not. You might can face problem due to less Percentage in graduation in your campus placement.
