I have a VM which is up and running and I have few applications in the VM. So I want to have an image of this VM so that I can create new instances with all the installed packages. I have option called clone, but instead cloning a VM I wanted to have it as an Image and create VM whenever I want.

A snapshot reflects the contents of a persistent disk in a concrete instant in time. An image is the same thing, but includes an operating system and boot loader and can be used to boot an instance.
It's described here: https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/creating-custom-image
Basically what it boils down to:
gcloud compute images create example-image --source-disk example-disk --source-disk-zone ZONE
