One of my friend who belongs to OBC category got 93% in CAT and this time selected for IIM, Kozikode. So if you got at least 90% in CAT exam than you get a call for GD and PI or WAT or PI round.

Sorry to say this, but there is no minimum percentile, it depends on your past marks and also, your peers. As a cumulative, score is considered for calling people for interviews.

For OBC category, you should get above 90 at least or take your target as 95 to be on a safer side.

According to IIM Ahmedabad short-listings criteria 27% of the seats are reserved for NC-OBC. Note: Creamy OBC Candidates are considered similar to General Category. For Non Creamy OBC, You can get a call from ABC at 98 percentile & all other Top B-Schools after scoring 96 Percentile if you've a decent profile. Note that definition for a decent profile, differs for each college. As you might not get a call from IIM Ahmedabad even at 99 percentile if you've less than 75% in Xth or XIIth. You can also get help from the Shiksha call predictor. Link mentioned below-
