KJ Somaiya CAT cutoff is around 83-85 percentile. So, you should get a shortlist. The final selection will be based on your performance in the GD-PI round. The selection parameters with weightage are as follows. 

Qualifying Examination 35%
Personal Interview 25%
Group Discussion 15%
Past Academic Records 10%
Achievements 10%
Work Experience  5%

Since you are a fresher you will lose 5%. You will need to ace the GD-PI round to compensate for it. Your performance in these rounds will be pivotal for the final shortlist.

My sister studied at K J Somaiya so I know about their admission process. If you're able to score a good percentile, then know that most of it is done and only some of the battle remains. Here are the other parameters that are considered for selection. 

  • Your performance in group discussion rounds and personal interviews.
  • Work experience or internship experience (if you're a fresher). If you don't have any, you'll have to ace the Group Discussion and Personal Interview. GD and PI rounds have 42% weightage.

Your performance in these rounds will determine whether you will get admission or not. Hence, if you are well-versed with current affairs and know about the important happenings, and are confident throughout the process then you won't face any difficulty in converting the call.
