Regarding the growth of the company, I started with an initial investment of 60000 US$. I started with only the manufacturing of pail containers. As we had started with only 1 Indian machine at the time, we were trading half of our orders from other container manufacturers.
Today, we have a full capacity working Japanese machines, we have an in-house printing unit. We then started manufacturing drums in various size- 20litre, 25 litre, 50 litre. we then started manufacturing Hdpe Bottles. Also, we set up a new plant for manufacturing Pet bottles last year. This year, we have started recycling plastic raw material, particularly LDPE.

Hey there,
Great too hear from you again and thanks for the information.

So I think that given what you have written here your school list is a bit too ambitious. Your company is a good one, but from what you have written here not necessarily with the scale or form that would propel you into Top 10 schools necessarily. That, taken in conjunction with your quite low GPA your relatively low GMAT for an Indian applicant and your non IIT diploma make Top 10 schools likely out of range.

What I would suggest first then is to expand your range to Top 30, and then find yourself a spread of schools that appeal to you in this spread. And in your case given that you have your own company I'd say aim for more schools rather than less. And sure, you can still apply to some Top 10 schools as stretch schools as long as you balance it out (I mean your objective is to get into a good program).

I hope these thoughts help!
Best,
JF
