Good acads, education and work ex. You may apply to IITM as you have an outside chance of a call. Have a good essay and fill in all details. For the others, better inquire at the respective IIT threads. All the best.

You have a good chance of getting and call and converting it provided that you do well in GT/PI. Group task and PI are veri important and if you meet certain pre-requsites , then you can surely enter IIT Madras.
