For your profile (EWS, non-engineering, male, fresher with 8/8/8), you should generally target 98+ percentile in CAT to stay on the safer side for old IIMs. Since competition is higher for non-engineering male candidates, a percentile closer to 99 will give you better chances. However, being from the EWS category does give you some relaxation, so even 97–98 percentile might fetch calls from a few IIMs and other top B-schools. Still, aim as high as possible because cut-offs vary every year.
