Hi VishalS7,
Well, you have a pretty decent profile as such - CFA and Work ex. are pretty strong factors to highlight.
Are you targeting only UK Schools?
Well, for Imperial you need a GPA of 8.0+, LSE and LBS should be doable though.
A gap year will not be major issue if you are articulate about how you portray it - You will need to justify it with reasons and create a story-line for your essay that highlights how you leveraged the gap year.
LBS and LSE are the only UK Schools that need a GMAT - A 690+ Score will be considered competitive.
