Hi nishant123454321,
    Academics & GMAT - good CGPA, GMAT OK, but work ex will likely balance this out for the committee

    Extracurricular activities - very interesting! great conversation starters!

    Work Experience - this is where you shine! you have fantastic international work experience! if you have direct reports, add this, add and quantify the impact of your role - %, #, increase, decrease...

    School wish list – You are very close to the average for LBS, but your leverage your international experience to help show what you have to offer... can certainly outweigh GMAT with well put together application... same for HEC. Mannheim and WHU will be easier targets. Not as sure about ISB, its typically a numbers/statistics game for them.
    Would love to work with you on your apps - [email protected]
