As per marks criteria, you are not eligible for maximum IT companies. But you are eligible for campus placement of IT companies like Wipro and Syntel.

Required percentage of marks throughout the studies for IT companies is,

IT companies= 60%

Candidates having pending backlog are not eligible for IT companies recruitment.

Candidates having more than two year gap throughout the studies are not eligible for IT companies recruitment.

I am very sorry to say that you are not eligible to get job in top MNC companies with 58% marks in academics. As we all know that software companies are very concerned about the percentage criteria and they strictly follow the rule.

I can say that almost there are very less companies to which you can apply after completion of studies with just 58% marks. But remember there is an another chance for you to get job in software based companies. Yes, there are some small scale software companies which generally recruit candidates irrespective of the percentage criteria. so I suggest you to look for the job in such small scale software companies rather than in MNC's.

Hello friend,
It is true that with 58% marks it is very tough to get a job in leading MNC's like TCS,CTS,WIPRO,IBM or INFOSYS. But please don't be upset. there are lot of companies here in India who allows candidates to appear who have 50% or 55% marks. you can always start with those companies. After having one or two years of experience and learning some skills you can try for better opportunities.

Best of luck
