The idea that software engineers in India "expire" at 40 is a myth, but age bias exists in some companies.
Many experienced professionals after 40 i.e. (40+) thrive in leadership (CTO, architects), consulting, or niche domains (AI/cloud). The key is to keep skills updated and transition to higher-impact roles over time.

I am always worried about the employment opportunities we would get as software engineers after the age of 40 in India. I am currently 30 and need to plan my retirement financially.. so just trying to understand how the scene is after 40...
I want to understand how much the salary Software Engineer can go up to?
Bit background about me:
Asking for people who feel contended with what they do and how much salary they draw.
