Hey Archit - you've targeted some good schools and you're clearly doing your research, since most of them are strong in operations. Your university experience is strong and the fact that you have the BTech/MTech 5-year degree is distinctive, especially since you got such high marks at a good school. We're very keen on the fact that you went to Denmark for an internship, this adds great value to your profile when compared to some other Indian engineer candidates who have never left their home country.
But speaking of those Indian engineers... Your profile does unfortunately hit up against that stereotype. Your GMAT is a little lower than we'd like to see but it's definitely not too low - it qualifies you for any of the schools on your list, especially since those tend to be somewhat more flexible than the crazy-competitive schools at the top of all the rankings. These are all still quite good MBA programs but they're also more accessible in many ways.
So, our verdict is that it's clear you're doing your research, which we always like to see, and you'll be presenting a lot of strengths. We are all systems go for you! We cannot think of any other school to suggest beyond this list, as it already includes the ones we immediately thought of when reviewing your profile. With good essays, you should be able to crack into one of the ones near the top of that list, too - you can safely move schools like Mays to a Round 2 strategy to see what happens with the first ones you apply to.
Hope this helps, let us know if we can answer any questions for you - and good luck on everything!!

Thank you for your quick and frank evaluation of my profile 
And yes, as you wrote, I am targeting good MBA colleges in the field of Operations Management. Initially, I was thinking of applying to Mays during R1, but as per your advice, I might now apply for Mays during R2. And I forgot to add my AWA score of 5.5/6 and IR score of 8/8 earlier in the GMAT score information that I provided. Hope, the Adcoms will consider these sectional scores as positives too while evaluating my profile
Thanks for your quick reply again.
