As it's been noted already, it is NOT around 490. Last time, I checked, It was around 430. There is a page that shows the information for all draws so far.

Also, it's been noted above, the quickest way is to take another shot at IELTS. I got 8 overall the first time around and it was 8 the second time too. However, my score in writing improved from 6.5 to 7 and that made a difference of 45 points. So, play around with the CRS calculator tool. Change the score in various modules and see if anything helps your case.

You've mentioned PNP nomination, how can I move forward with that?

You have to watch out for announcements from provinces beginning to accept applications for PNP. Better be ready with all necessary documents before the streams are open because they close within few days.
