You have a lot of things working against you: Indian IT male, little work experience, and a low GMAT compared to others in your demographic.
Based on the limited information you provided, I'd say it would be very hard to get into a top-10 program and quite hard to get into a top-15 program.
What sets you apart from all the other Indian IT guys? That is what you need to figure out and communicate in your applications.

Hello,
VJTI is a good school in Mumbai university. However, you need to have more fire-power to land in top-20.
Background ? company ? role ? Are you a manager ?If yes, how many people ? what were your initiatives.
Extra-cirriculars : nothing special. You really need to see how to differentiate yourself if you want to go to top 20.
