12LPA @27 Years. Am I a failure.

12lpa @ 27 yrs age. Is it too low for this age. I see most people here reach 30+ ctc by this age and get multiple marriage offers also. I feel ashamed now, i think marriage also less chance.

No not at all, I was at 9 lpa at 27, and currently at 37 lpa with 31. The growth is never linear in life so don't worry

Ashame kyu ho raha h bhai? With new regime, you are making 1L/month. Mazak ni hai, probably top 5% of India makes that (not sure but maybe 10%). And at 27 (~4/5 years of career)

This is good bro. Discourage mat ho. Keep upskilling and switch jobs ~every 2 years and you will grow at 30%+ on an annualised basis - if you’re shifting to the right places or find a good high growth company and you might increase 30-40% year on year in a 10 year career.

Well, to be honest I was at 5 until last month. Just made the switch.
You are in tech I guess, you'll get a pretty substantial hike if you try for SDET or QA in a product based company
