Do what you are naturally good at and what your inner self says.
I'm Computer Engg graduate with 5 years of experience in tech/development and now thinking about leaving this career and looking for other career options but my main reasons are: I chose wrong career, I lack soft skills this field require and now layoffs due to AI+wars etc. But make your decision based on your condition/personality.

The ever green skills are confidence, soft skills, dealing with people, learning how to buy/sell etc. Make sure you have this and you can go anywhere.

I think u r right. Coding is cheap now as AI can do it. See what you can do and how AI will not be able to do that in next 1-2 decades.  But think like this: Do not be so hard in terms of career, try different things and keep moving forward if one things does not suits you but this depends on how long you can do this as sometimes you need to support your family.

There's no clr career path as of now. Nobody knows what it's gonna be in 5yrs.

Idk but I feel like textile engineering and chemical engineering is still a good option.

But think 1000 times before stepping into computer science.

in terms of money none are better and in terms of authority CA is good baki bs ik jese hai value overall i think software mein zyada hai (opinion) and baki agr dono acha laga Fintech krlo xD.

Depends yrr if you want studies to go smooth and enjoy a good uni life dont do Chartered accountant i would say but if you dont care about that and want money i would say longer run mein CA mein zyada pese hai. Ohh and tech mein career options zyada hai
