It depends a lot on what is your academic profile i.e. 10th, 12th, graduation marks and if you have any work experience or not. These are the two factors other than CAT score that matter to get into a top IIM. Since you are an economics student, non-engineers require relatively lower percentile in comparison to engineers. So target at least 99 percentile if you have strong academics i.e. 9/9/8. Otherwise aim for 99.3+

I know an economics student who also got a shortlist at 98.5 for IIM C
