As we learnt in 

Hybridisation -

sp3d2 - square bipyramidal or octahedral 

d2sp3 - octahedral 

sp3 - tetradedral 

dsp2 - square planar

- wherein

sp3d2 - outer complex

d2sp3 - inner complex

sp3 - [Ni(Cl)_{4}]^{2-}

dsp2 - [Pt(CN)_{4}]^{2-}

 

 e- configuration of Mn3+  in [Mn(CN)6]3- 

Mn3+ = 3d4 4s0

As CN- is a strong field ligand, so,  e- in 3d orbital will pair up and make way for d2 sp3 hybridization

The geometry will be octahedral.
