In India’s corporate imagination, the age of 40 was once seen as the peak of professional maturity. It symbolised authority, stability, and leadership readiness. Today, however, that same milestone is quietly turning into a career fault line. Across industries, professionals report fewer interview calls, slower promotions, and an increasing sense of invisibility. Experience, once celebrated, is now being reframed as expensive, rigid, or culturally misaligned. The shift is subtle, rarely spo

Google chief executive Sundar Pichai has urged caution as global enthusiasm for artificial intelligence continues to fuel record valuations and intense competition across the technology sector. In an interview, Pichai described the present moment as remarkable for innovation, yet marked by clear signs that investor expectations may be stretching beyond what the industry can sustain.
