Hey Yash,
So overall you have a fairly impressive profile. Here are a few pointers about the same -
You come from a nationally renowned university, so that will add on to your application.
A GMAT score of 700-720 fits well within the median GMAT scores of many top colleges.
You have a comparatively low CGPA ; but you can compensate for it by highlighting your other profile strengths. Essay are a great way for doing this, so make sure that you spend enough time perfecting them. Your GMAT will also help with the same.
As far as your work experience is concerned, your internship and start-up experience are valuable assets to your application.
However, the adcoms are interested in impact rather than just participation.
So make sure that you exemplify your learnings and your interest in marketing through your Work experience.
You can even check out a few MOOCs pertaining to your career interests, as they will show-case Self-initiative.
Also your SSC and HSC score do not hold much relevance outside India, so you can skip them.
As you have done your education in India, your transcripts would be proof of your English language proficiency, so you do not need to take IELTS.
Some schools such as LSE, do require an IELTS though.
As far as your target schools are concerned, none of them are well renowned, and are in relatively small countries, hence they would give you limited carreer growth opportunities.
With your profile, you have a fair shot at some of the top B-Schools like ESCP, RSM, LBS, EDHEC and ESSEC.
If financial aid is a concern for you, with a good application and score, you will have a fair shot at a scholarship.
Plus apprentisage is also a good option in French schools, to support yourself.
So i would suggest a careful revaluation of schools, as well as an analysis of what exactly you are looking to do in the short term.
