I've also posted my resume on portals and have been contacted by many recruiters for jobs I am not qualified for, over-qualified for, or are out of my area. I have been advised to hide make resume (make it not searchable by recruiters & employers) and just use those sites to respond to postings you are interested in.

I am not sure how the recruiting business works in India, but if it is similar to the US my suggestion would be to seek out good recruiters who are local to you or the geographic area you want to work.

The good recruiters will want to meet you face-to-face before they place you, and have relationships with technology managers and HR people at companies where you'd like to work. They are compensated based on your first year's salary so it is in their interest to present you only for positions that are good fit, with the highest salary, where you will be happy.
