Chances are very less to get calls from good government MBA colleges but you can try for NITs. Durgapur, Rourkela, Hamirpur and few others might accept this score for management school. You can try for other state engineering colleges if they have a management wing. Generally, government colleges (even tier-II/III) have good ROI and have very fewer seats for management, hence it will be difficult to get one.

Dear aspirant, Please note that MBA is a huge investment of time and money. Two years of your youth are invested in that! And you do it generally once. Hence, try to get the best college you can. I am sure that with better and more focused preparation you can get into the 80 percentile tier which will enable you decent schools. In India, only the top 30-35 colleges are considered worthy to join and at your percentile, none of them will be accepting you. 58 percentile is not the end of the journey for you. Reconsider your preparation and make small changes and I believe you can hit the 80 percentile for sure Hence, my advice would be to

It's going to be very difficult to get a call from any good B-School at this score. At least, 80+ percentile is required to get a call from tier-II or III B-Schools. You can give one more chance to CAT if you are in final year of your graduation. Else, you can prepare for other MBA entrance exams like CMAT MAT and score good percentile. Most of the tier-II or III B-schools accept these scores from admissions.

Hello!
Unfortunately, there is no decent B-school anywhere in India where one can expect getting admission with that score in the CAT exam. And the ones you might get won't simply be worth enough to pursue MBA; a total waste of B.O.Th time (2 years) and money (in Lacs). I suggest you to either reappear for CAT (or other exams as per your wish) next year or focus on the other upcoming exams like MAH-MBA CET and MAT. Wish you good luck!

Hello!
The score of CAT 2016 was valid only for the last year's academic session I.e. 2017-19 only, and not for the 2018-20 session (unlike GMAT). The validity of CAT (and all other MBA entrance exams conducted in India) scores is just for the next i.e. one year. https://iimcat.ac.in/per/g01/pub/756/ASM/WebPortal/1/index.html?756@1@1#!
