Hey there!
Great to hear from you.
So you have a solid profile and I think with great essays and recommendations you could do well. However there are two major issues that I think you can and should work upon.
1. 2 years experience. - It's too low for an MBA. There are some people who go into MBA with three years experience at matriculation but the vast majority come from banking/finance. i.e. industries that they will re-enter immediately after graduating that are top industries. Two years of coding is likely not enough
2. GMAT - It's just too low as an Indian. For some thoughts on retaking the GMAT as an Indian have a look here: https://admissionado.com/mba/to-retake-o ... n=mba_blog
The good thing is you can take care of both of those things over the next year, while working hard to improve all aspects of your application.
I hope this helps,
Best,
Jon
