Hello Nikhil,
Hope you are doing well!
First of all, congratulations on your CAT score.
It seems you have a great profile, and meet all the eligibilities. Unfortunately, it depends on the IIM to call a student for interview, and a good score, and good profile is not everything.
Though this in not common for your score to not get a call, and is really unfortunate in your case.
Hope my answer helped you.
Best of luck!
