I was told verbatim by an adcom director that the minimum criterium is around 50 percentile in quant
Meaning that they won’t lower their statistics and consider any application to interview stage below that

That said I’ve seen quite a smorgasbord of different GMAT scores among applications from my research and contacts with alumni

Indian applicants are not guaranteed a strong application even with a 730+ GMAT and I know for sure some applications from other regions have landed a seat with GMAT scores in the north of 660-680
