Hey Shardul,
From what I can see here, I feel like your school list is pretty reasonable, although you do lack a safe school.
However in reading through your profile, I dont yet get a good sense of either who you are personally, or what you have REALLY done professionally (and especially, your leadership potential). If you are to succeed in your applications, it will be VITAL that you come across to the AdCom as interesting, unique, passionate, and successful thus far, and you will need to paint that picture of yourself in your application, otherwise there is a certain danger that you might come across as just "another Indian applicant", but you are more special than that, dude!!!
Best,
Jon
