You academic are very good except the graduation which is just 58%.
If you want to get the calls from IIM Ahmedabad, Bangalore and Calcutta(Kolkata) you must have to clear 4 cutoffs 3 sectional and 1 overall.
PH category cut-off
Sectional cut-off for verbal section is 65 percentile plus
Sectional cut-off for quants is 65 percentile plus
Sectional cut off for data and logic is 65 percentile plus
And overall cut-off is 80 percentile plus
This is the cut-off for the last year's
This year cut-off might change according to the level of paper.
Hope this information will help you out
Good luck for your cat exam
Dear aspirant, you must have to score above 98 percentile to be called from the top IIMs. The reason is simple, you have got less marks is graduation. The IIMs look for the overall score. Whether it's your class 12th, class 10th, or graduation. If you have got less in graduation then do well in CAT to make your overall score better. And now a days the IIMs have given more wieghtage to extra corriculars like your PI for selection. So don't worry do well in CAT.
All the best
Hope this helps
