Simple graduate with 50% marks

Definitely,why not? just follow the proverb"where there is will there is a way" and it does not matter the % in academic carrier it matters only in CAT percentile to complete your dream, so you start proceedings from right now.

For commercial then MBA in Finance or for technical MBA in Operation but in every-sphere there is a need of Techno-Commercial qualification,so proceed wherever you feel comfortable, there are lots of scope in every field now and then.

Yes, u can do from other colleges also. But be sure to do it from anyone which ranks within top 100 bschools. All the best.

WAT/PI process is pretty straightforward. As soon as you arrive, you will be given a topic or a case to write two pages on. The topics are usually common and you will not find it difficult. However interview could be a little tricky. Professors usually cover your entire application and questions. You should also expect questions from your graduation and work experience. Number of students that get through is different for different years and institutes. It is purely a function of total number of seats in individual IIMs. Typically the number is between 350 to 450.

Although you will clear all the cutoffs, but without a really good CAT score probably you will not receive interview call from IIMs. Given these score I would suggest that you should do really well in CAT and try to achieve at least 99.5 percentile. If you get more than 99.5 percentile with more than 95 percentile in all subsections, you will definitely get few interview calls from high ranked IIMs.

Fee of IIMs range between 6 lakhs per year to around 10 lakhs per year. PGDM is two years course. However there are several scholarships available.

Criteria of admission changes every year and one can not be certain about the criteria in the future. However one thing that has been consistent is that if you have less than 80% in graduation, you are severely disadvantaged, but with good CAT score you can still make it. I would suggest you should try to push your graduation percentage to over 80 in the final year. Admission in IIMA will be easier then.

It depends. There are a lot of factors considered. However looking at your academic record, it seems that you might be severely disadvantaged because of low GPA. To compensate for that you will need to score a little more in CAT. Typically 99.5 percentile is enough to get anyone a call from IIM (with similar academic background). However to be safe I would suggest that you target 99.7 percentile.

It's not written. But generally, the marks are considered. Not a big deal; around 60% is considered good.
