First of all, A Big Congratulations to you for securing a decent percentile. I hope you are satisfied with your percentile and taking that into account, I am proceeding forward with my answer.
You really have a great LRDI and Quant Score but due to slightly lower Verbal score, you might be missing out on most of the IIM’S qualifying sectional percentiles. However, you might expect a call from IIM Sirmaur, IIM Amritsar, IIM Jammu, IIM Bodhgaya and IIM Ranchi(HR course). Besides that, there are several other great colleges which will not take into account your sectional scores are listed below:

Though this is not a complete list of colleges, but you can expect a call from these colleges with your CAT score.
Next, what you need to do is to get yourself gear up your preparation for Group Discussion, Case Discussions, Written Ability Test and Personal Interviews. The following four things won’t be followed all together. Some colleges may have only WAT & PI. Others may follow other ways of selection. For Group Discussions, you should be good at speaking in English. Beside your communication skills, you should be noted on your eye contacts and your ability to moderate a GD. For Case Analysis, try to get some idea on “SWOT & PESTEL” analysis which will add you some brownie points. For WAT & PI, read newspapers daily and having a quick writing habit.
You might be asked questions on your average Verbal score. Try to frame an answer to it before hand.
Another thing that you need to keep in mind that if you are not going for a dedicated specialisation from the very first year, then try to do an initial reading on the basics of Marketing, Finance, Operations, Analytics and Human Resources. Though you will be going through each and every introductory courses in detail when you will join any program but if you need to get an upper hand, you need to prepare before hand. If you are an engineering graduate, try to learn the basics of accounting and economics before joining as that will be helpful for you to compete with your commerce peers who have joined the same curriculum.
I hope I have answered your query. All the best!!!
