Need Advice Whether GMAT is my best option

Hello Fellow GMAT Peers and Thanks in advance for any advice you guys give on my post.
I am a 29 Year old Operations Guy from India and my undergraduate major was mechanical engineering from University of Pune. I have a CGPA of 6.73/10.
My first and only attempt as off was in 2011 when i scored 660 (q47 v35)
I am in a big conflict over the advantage of an MBA at this time in my career.
I have been working in my family business of manufacturing of engineering goods for the past 7 years and have been solely handling one of our manufacturing facilities for the past 4 years now.
Our net turnover is around USD 2Million and the manufacturing facility I run contributes roughly 30% to this figure.
My expertise has been design, operations and supply chain and I have worked on various projects for engineering bigwigs such as L&T, BHEL, NTPC, NHPC and others.
My motivation for GMAT and MBA is a corporate job as operations head at one of the top 100 manufacturing/service companies globally.
My remuneration inclusive of bonuses, profits and salary amount to USD 20000 annually.
Am I too late to make the jump into the corporate sector or is there a fair chance for me if I score 700+?
Any advice/criticism is welcome.
