Hi there,
Well certainly if you re-take and get a 700+, that will increase your admissions chances at these programs. The biggest challenge will be standing out from the competition, as there are so many Indian IT applicants.... so think about the general perceptions of applicants most like you (i.e., perhaps it's assumed you'll have strong technical, analytical, and quantitative skills.... but not necessarily leadership, management, communication, "people" skills). Work towards showing the sides of you that are LESS typical of someone with your profile. How HAVE you demonstrated leadership or teamwork? And the others l just listed? What does make you unique compared with similar applicants? Have your or can you get involved in the community? Etc. Good luck to you!

Starting with your score, it’s a risk trying for your target schools as not only the score but also other factors are suggesting that and we would talk about them as well. Now, you have a decent amount of work experience but what matters is that it proposes your image as a candidate possessing strong leadership qualities. So try to take up responsibilities in your job where you get to enhance your leadership qualities. Also get involved into extracurricular activities as it forms an important part of the application and here also try to enhance your leadership skills. So being at your place I would definitely go for another take of GMAT aiming 720+ as it would also help open various other B-school options. So get started and Good Luck!
