Dear GMAT Experts ,
Hope you are doing well.
Last week I appeared for GMAT & scored Q47 . I was expecting a score of Q49-Q50 as I was scoring consistently well in official mocks . I need your help and guidance by evaluating my ESR report , so that I can work on weak areas . I want to improve my score to at least Q50.

Hi adyg14.
Since you ran out of time and rushed the last quarter of the quant section and may have rushed part of the third quarter, it's a little hard to tell whether you missed questions in weak areas only or you also missed questions in other areas as a result of your rushing. So, it's not 100 percent clear from you ESR which areas you're weaker in.
The only area such that it's fairly clear that you are pretty strong in that area is rates/ratio/percent, in which you got 83 percent of the questions correct. Any other areas could be weaker areas.
In fact, in many cases, ESR data are not great indicators of what test-takers need to focus on to increase their GMAT scores, and yours appears to be such a case.
So, I think your move is to determine what areas to work on in some other way, perhaps by checking your error logs or considering which types of questions you'd rather not see on your GMAT on test day. Any types of questions that you have missed a lot in the past, have taken a long time to answer, or simply don't feel comfortable answering are candidates for focused practice before your next GMAT.
For some tips on how to practice for best results, see this post.

Conceptual clarity may not be your problem but time management certainly is.
You got medium level questions in first quarter and still took almost 3 mins per question. You answered all correctly so that's good but you lost too much time. Again you took more than average time in quarter 2 but the level of the questions you got incorrect was high so penalty for that would not have been very high. Similar was the case in quarter 3 and you likely guessed quickly on the last few questions and hence the difficulty level of your mistakes came down to your average.
Then my suggestion would be to look for better methods of solving and do not second guess yourself too much. You may want to review Number Properties well and practice 700+ level questions of all other topics under timed conditions.
