Hi

Getting a call from a B- School depends upon a number of factors like  your percentile  score in CAT and academic profile i. e.percentage of marks obtained by you in  class 10th, 12th and graduation, work experience. You have an average academic profile as per the details mentioned by you .

With your overall 87.69 percentile in CAT you are eligible to be shortlisted for further rounds in IIT Kanpur but just being eligible doesn't necessarily mean that you will be shortlisted ,as per the past year trends to be shortlisted in IIT Kanpur for further rounds you should have got at least 95 percentile in your CAT, you have chances in following B schools  which are listed below :-

*Indian Institute of Financial Management and Research, Changambakkam
*SP Jain Institute of Management and Research, Mumbai
*Xavier Institute of Management and Entrepreneurship, Bangalore
*Prin. L N Welingkar Institute of Management Development and Research, Mumbai
*Institute of Management Studies, Banaras Hindu University, Varanasi
*Sydenham Institute of Management Studies, Research and Entrepreneurship Education, Mumbai
*FORE School of Management, New Delhi

After getting a call , one has to go through WAT/GD/PI , and then he/she is finally selected for admission on the basis of performance in these rounds  , percentile score in CAT, academic profile and work experience.

To get the list of colleges that you can get call from  for your MBA, you can use CAT call predictor, the link for the same is provided below

With a percentile of 87.69 in CAT, and have a more or less average academic record in 10/12/B.Tech, only because you are from OBC Category, I believe you have fair chances in securing a call for GDPI/WAT from Department of Industrial Engineering and Management (IEM) , IIT Kanpur. However, I still believe you would have better chances if you had secured a percentile anywhere between 90-95 in CAT for admission in MBA Programs at any of the Top IITs or Newer IIMs.
