Overall your GMAT number would be easily good enough, but you are coming the the most overrepresented pool there is - Male Indian Tech. So getting a few more points on the GMAT CAN help, plus you have the time, so there's no reason not to retake it. But don't go crazy doing so - what I mean is once applications are released (say early July) then it's time to put the GMAT aside and concentrate on your STORIES, because the REAL trick to breaking out of such a huge pool is to be UNIQUE, to present unique stories, and to show them who you ARE.

Otherwise, your school list is very reasonable.
Best of luck to you!
