Every batch in every IIM (executive MBA) has few govt sector employees.
As the institute looks for diversity, you will more often than not be competing against govt sector candidates (of your general field).

A safe score for getting into IIM would be 655+, given your profile is strong.

Hi,
Every batch across these programs includes candidates from PSU backgrounds. While your exact chances will depend on your overall profile, 8 years of work experience combined with an average GMAT score of 655 should put you in a reasonably competitive position.

Happy to discuss your profile in detail
