Hi Sachin,
The percentile depends on your category and other profile factors (like your work exp., graduation and school. Scores, etc.).
In general, for a general category student, you would need at least 99 percentile for getting into the top IIMs (A, B, C and L). For the newer IIMs, you can expect a call at a percentile above 97 or 98 as well. For SP Jain and MDI, you would need around 98 percentile plus a good profile. FMS will also require around 99 percentile.
