hello Saikran
I hope you are well
I would like to tell you that admission process of IIMs is very unique. They looks diversity in students ,they want students from different backgrounds. Applications of engineers are very high in numbers due to which cut off of cat and academics goes high for engineers . Due to btech profile your academics is above average and sufficient to get a call if and only if your percentile is quite high in cat atleast above 95 percentile
Hope you found this answer helpful. Good luck for your future
