Hello Aspirant,

According to your question it looks like you are confused between FMS Delhi and IMS BHU because there is no FMS BHU so if you are asking for FMS Delhi then on such CAT percentile there are no chances for you to get call from FMS Delhi because CAT cut-off for FMS Delhi generally variates around 98 percentile and for OBC category too it's quite high but if you are talking about IMS BHU then there are good chances for you to get call from IMS BHU on such percentile and category because cut-off for IMS BHU generally variates around 85 percentile and also note that the above prediction is made on the basis of previous year's shortlisting data which is subject to change every year depending upon various factors. You can check out the Top B-Schools and their cut-off scores from the link given below :-
