Hi vinayakprakash :
Welcome to GMAT Club. Please read the rules before posting. This question goes into General GMAT Questions Forum.
Firstly, One thing is not clear.
1. Do you have 3 years of experience or you are going to start your WE.
In both case, top B-schools average WE is 5 years. But they do accept people who have 2 years of experience and show exceptional managerial capabilities. If you are going to start your career now, then there is lot time to plan for it. Also your profile looks more on the technical side.
For Indian IT Male category: You need to have stronger GMAT(Above 700), stronger WE(Managerial/ Management Analyst etc). Since this is the most represented category when it comes to applying for a top B-school.
Normally many experts would suggest to retake GMAT to reach that threshold. And make your profile more stronger, so that you get shot at your favourite/ preferred B-school.
Hope it helps
