IIMs give points based on how many months of experience you have, no matter which job which firm. And it is in ranges for example 0-12 months may fetch you 2 marks, 12-24 may fetch 4 marks etc. So, completing 12 months can help. But if it too uncomfortable, best to switch. Not necessarily a gap, you can take up a different job, even one in the fitness industry can help? Maybe work for a fitness startup? Pay doesn't matter - expeirence in terms of months does.
You can use this new tool that I just built which may suggest what all you can do to fill up the gap - https://shwetaarora.in/profile-builder
Both options can help but fitness one (even if not certified) will be an interesting topic of conversation during interviews.
