How much time did you prepare? What are the books you studied for the first attempt?
Your quant score is good. You can easily get Q51 in your next attempt. Try only hard math questions. There is quant 700-800 pdf available across. It has mix of appx 1000 ps and DS questions. A few of them are really tough to the extent what you can get on any test day. I solved it completely and I loved it.

This tells us that you are not very good at RC. How do you read RC? How much time do you read a long passage and a short passage? How much time do you take for answering RC question? Which RC questions trouble you most? inferece? main point? or other? Can you understand the structure of the passage? Do you take notes? There can be plenty questions to analyse. You need to ask these questions to yourself. Try 1 or 2 passages daily without any fail. Get yourself used to stucture of RC passages and stylistic/professional english writing which we,indians, are normally not aware of.
Improve faster reading and compression skills. Learn to pay close attension to only the important content and to ignore and skim through not so important content. Refer to Mgmat RC book to know how to deal with Gmat RCs
And about managing time properly, here is a good article by stacey, which might be of your interest.

You have more than 6 months time for your second attempt. I would say 150 point rise is definately possible if you are determined and focussed enough towards your target.
