Hello there,
Good to hear from you!
So the short of it is that although you have some good stuff in your profile, with your current GMAT you don't have any chance of making any of those schools. My suggestion would be to buckle down and retake the GMAT. If you have enough time, and want to apply this year - in time for R2. Otherwise to consider an application in 2018.
For some information about just how tough it can be for Indian applicants r.e. the GMAT have a look at these two articles:
