This is an extremely interesting topic and I hope someone replies with data/studies to show what happens to the people who gain experience in the Indian IT industry by doing lower cognitive tasks.
From my personal experience, I see people either shifting tracks and getting out of the IT Industry completely (either getting an MBA and getting out or starting/ inheriting a business) or them being laid off in the hundreds/thousands whenever the IT companies do their cleaning (see newspaper articles on layoffs).
There is ageism as a side-effect of how unnaturally the supply side of talent is skewed with a huge amount of fresh engineers being churned out ready to work low paying jobs every year( probably why entry level salaries have been Rs 3.5L for the past 15 years)
