Hi Mohit,
Your EC seem to be decent but not extraordinary. Your profile seriously lacks work ex. I believe you should hold on for a couple of years and gather some work ex. Experience mainly in a managerial role is appreciated. If not then , work which requires responsibility. You do not have to be a hotshot in your company , any work or job or a part of it for which you are solely responsible and accountable is very much appreciated. International experience is also an added bonus.
Your GMAT score is decent but not outstanding. You are in the making of a good candidate. Before you apply I suggest you should go for a better work ex and may be in that time you can retake the GMAT and push your score higher.
