Dhyan, you haven't mentioned your Category. But to be honest with you, the old IIMs need a minimum cut off of 95 percentile to be shortlisted for further rounds. The baby IIMs will need atleast 90 percentile. This is for the General Category. For reserved Categories, you will need atleast 90 percentile for the old IIMs and 85 percentile for the new IIMs. Now CAT score is not the only score that is considered while being shortlisted for the WAT and PI rounds. Now if you look at IIM K, the criteria to be shortlisted will be as follows:

Category

CAT Score Percentile

MBA/PGDM Admissions OPEN

Apply to Great Lakes - PGPM & PGDM 2025

Sectional Percentile

10th%

12th%

GEN

85

75

60

60

NC-OBC/EWS

75

65

60

60

SC

65

55

55

55

ST/PwD

55

45

55

55

And not everyone who gets this score is shortlisted for the next rounds. There is a specific number of Candidates that are shortlisted for the further rounds based on the seat intake of the particular IIM. For example, IIM A considers only these many Candidates per Category:

UR: 100

NC-OBC, Trans: 57

SC: 32

ST: 16

PWD: 6

Now to be in this list, to be honest with you, 86.28 percentile unfortunately isn't enough.
