Dear Bharath,
You have a decent CGPA and can target universities like Dalhousie University, Concordia University. You can also target some ambitious universities like University of Ottawa. However, I would suggest you to keep some more country options open and apply there as well.
Competition in Canada has drastically increased in the last 6 months and it is highly recommended that you target regions like USA and some countries in Europe.

Dear Jaspal,
Yes, B.Tech percentage does matter in pursuing MS courses in Germany. However Universities do not mention and specific cut-off on their site because of 2 reasons:-
1. Universities abroad evaluate a person's overall profile than just specific scores. For ex: - 10th, 12th, Bachelors scores, work experience (if any), extra-curricular etc.
2. As Vikas rightly pointed out, cut-offs for admission keep changing from year to year depending upon the type of applications received. However they are generally very high for German Public Universities.

IITs and NITs are the best institutes for doing M.Tech or MS in India. Admission in M.Tech st IITs and NITs is based on GATE score.
