BMLT can be a good backup option, but it's best chosen out of genuine interest in lab sciences, not just as a fallback. The career path, skills, and daily work are quite different from clinical medicine.

There is no single score. It changes every year with the exam difficulty, the number of seats and your category. Government seats need a much higher rank than private ones. Home state students in Maharashtra get a big advantage in the state quota. Look at last year's cutoffs and aim a little higher.
