ey dude,
Well, the short and quick answer is: Just go for it!
Your GMAT is a bit low for INSEAD sure, but INSEAD DOES seem to be a lot more flexible when it comes to GMAT and test scores than US schools for example. when you write your application your story and your experience and the way you present yourself in general will count for a lot.
Your toughest obstacle is that you are an Indian Male Tech applicant, which means that right now your number one job is to make sure you figure out a way to STAND OUT in the eyes of the Adcom, because otherwise there's always a danger that you will get lost in the shuffle.
The best things I can see in your profile from here are your leadership and your international experience, two skills that INSEAD keeps a sharp eye out for.
Besides that, you should obviously consider applying to other schools too, because with your GMAT score, even if you should go for it, it's a bit of a stretch.
But before you make that final decision about going for a retake or not, have a read: https://bit.ly/B613Mgc
I hope these thoughts help you out!
Best,
JF
