What makes your profile unique -
I have garnered a unique type of work experience in multiple roles & industries, which gives me the advantage to use my industry-agnostic transferable skills & experience to contribute in a significant way going forward
I have led a business that I have scaled from 3 lakhs/month to 6 crores/month.
I have participated in co-curricular activities such as teaching in an NGO for 4 years.
I was the president of the dramatic society for my college.
I have founded a student exchange program in college throughout my life and these activities make me a well-rounded person.
With this score and profile, ISB PGP may be a stretch.
If there is an option to get a higher score, I strongly recommend a 720 given the profile, it increases your odds substantially. Beyond 740, GMAT may not matter as much.
If you are a business owner, ISB does have this option -

PGPX wise, I really cannot say for certain because the list is still very ambitious for the score.
