First of all go theough this link it is a clear description of the minimum requirements for getting calls from IIMs.
http://bschool.careers360.com/articles/iim-admission-criteria/amp
Which means if you have these requirements fulfilled you are eligible for getting respective IIM calls.
Moreover understand that many a times a lot of candidates dont get calls due to some past academics or lack of extracurriculars or workexperience.
So for such factors you will be required to visit individual websites of IIMs to have a look at their admission criteria.
Some value Cat for more than 53% of the score while some value Cat score only as much as 30% of overall profile score. It differs from IIM to IIM.
And even through the process many a times people clear Calls of IIM-L and say they might endup in a waitlist for a baby IIM. Because criterias differ.
Also understand that the list on the link only provides minimum cutoff. Many a times the minimum cutoff given by IIMs is lower than the actual cutoff that calls are given for.
For example IIM-K last time gave tentative calls to everyone from OBC category above a certain percentile. But in the second round for GD and PI most of them were not called further.
So keeping these things in mind it's better to actually score somewhere between 97-99 percentile to ensure a variety of top Bschools.
Hope this helps.
All the best.
