You haven't mentioned the Institution that you are interested in and your Category. Now IIM Ahmedabad and IIM Lucknow offer ABM course apart from other top B schools. You can check the complete list of colleges that offer this course at our page: https://bschool.careers360.com/colleges/list-of-agriculture-business-management-colleges-in-india

We shall give you the IIMs cut offs for a fair idea of how much you might have to score:

IIM Ahemdabad:

QA VARC DILR Overall

UR 70 70 70 80

NC-OBC/Trans 65 65 65 75

SC 60 60 60 70

ST 50 50 50 60

PWD 60 60 60 70

ST-PWD 50 50 50 60

Now this is sectional cut offs. The selection procedure is as follows:
10th Rating:

Percent score Rating Score

> 55 and <= 60 2

> 60 and <= 70 3

> 70 and <= 80 5

> 80 and <= 90 8

> 90 10

The same rating score is used for 12th Science /Commerce Streams. For Arts/Humanities:

Percent score Rating Score

<= 45 1
> 45 and <= 50 2
> 50 and <= 60 3
