Hi Vaibhav,
Thanks for your query. I see a lot of great things in your profile: super GPA, great internationally-oriented work experience.
Joining the family business: I wouldn't recommend leaving a global company like EY to work for the family business the year you're applying to an international business school, unless the family company is global, large and part of your long-term career vision. You want to be showing more international vision, not less. But I don't have all the information here, so I'm just making a general observation.

One thing I might want to see you work on is your GMAT: for your demographic, 660 is relatively low, and just barely squeaking by for international schools like ESADE and Imperial. Most people with your profile are scoring more like a 50+ on their Quant. If that's an option you'd consider, i.e. if you haven't already taken the GMAT many times, it might be worth giving it another try, especially if you hope to be in competition for scholarships.

Other schools: that would depend on your goals, which you didn't post here. Goals are a very important part of the holistic admissions approach that b-schools use. Know where you want to go post-MBA, and then target schools that will get you there!

Hope this helps,
Margaret
