If you belong to general category, you need to score above 98.28 percentile to get admission in IIMs. If you belong to SC or ST category, then you should score above 38 percentile in CAT exam.

I get 42% in 10th, 59% in 12th and 60% in graduation. Will I get call from IIM Calcutta after scoring above 99 percentile in CAT?

Every IIM has its own cut-off. It varies between 90 and 98 percentile. You need to score above 90 percentile in CAT to get the admission call from IIMS.
