Hello there my friend,
You have a good profile and plenty of good stuff, but your school list is a bit unrealistic. You come from a really really tough application pool (Indian Tech Male) and the schools you listed tend to turn down similar profiles as your but who went to IIT and have a 720+ GMAT. So I would suggest moving your school list from Top 10 to schools ranked 20-40 (very approximately). If you want a full on profile eval, I need more info from you dude! Like about what you do, how much leadership you have, what your main achievements are, and so on...
Looking forward to hearing from you!
