Hi
Getting a call from a B- School depends upon a number of factors like your percentile score in CAT and academic profile i. e.percentage of marks obtained by you in class 10th, 12th and graduation, work experience. You have an average academic profile as per the details mentioned by you .
With your overall 87.69 percentile in CAT you are eligible to be shortlisted for further rounds in IIT Kanpur but just being eligible doesn't necessarily mean that you will be shortlisted ,as per the past year trends to be shortlisted in IIT Kanpur for further rounds you should have got at least 95 percentile in your CAT, you have chances in following B schools which are listed below :-

With a percentile of 87.69 in CAT, and have a more or less average academic record in 10/12/B.Tech, only because you are from OBC Category, I believe you have fair chances in securing a call for GDPI/WAT from Department of Industrial Engineering and Management (IEM) , IIT Kanpur. However, I still believe you would have better chances if you had secured a percentile anywhere between 90-95 in CAT for admission in MBA Programs at any of the Top IITs or Newer IIMs.
