Hello Binod! If you are aiming for the old IIMs, a score of 99+ percentile is more preferred; 96+ for the new IIMs and 90+ for the other good non-IIMs. Good luck!

For IIMs A,B,C, Indore above 97%tile and new IIMs above 92-93%tile. For FMS, you require above 99.5 but these are for general category. But, you can get good private colleges above 92%tile.

If you are looking for IIMs, your minimum target should be 95+ and if you are looking for other colleges above 85+ will provide you a good college.
