Hi there,

Thanks for posting your profile. Generally you have the potential to have an offer from one of the top schools you mentioned, or at least get a chance for an interview, IF you are able to present compelling, clear, concise and convincing ;) (lots of 'c's there!) essays within your application, detailing:
-who you are,
-what you've gained from your past experiences,
-what you'll bring to the b-school class,
-why you need the MBA now,
-what your career plan is, and
-why THAT specific school is right for you!

You will be looked at as part of the Indian IT/engineering applicant pool which is quite competitive, but you do have some areas where you can stand out from that crowd, with your exceptional GMAT, CEO/family business experience, and CSR experiences. To have the best chance you can, you'll need to fully explain all of your key experiences and accomplishments within your professional experience particularly the CEO role, focusing on leadership and management experiences. International experiences are also a plus. And if you've been fairly involved in the CSR organization you say you founded, that is great to discuss in detail as well.

Overall your school list is still quite competitive. It won't be easy to get into any of the schools on your list, with Fuqua probably your best shot, but schools look at the applications as a whole, and you have strengths in many of the factors (GMAT, academics, work experience), so if you also manage to stand out as someone with a lot to contribute to the class, you could have a shot. ;)

Good luck to you, please keep us posted!
