Parantap Chowdhury, a former Assistant Vice President at Square Yards, left his high-paying job earning ₹54 lakh annually to pursue writing and build a digital business.
After seven years in demanding roles at startups like BYJU's, Chowdhury decided to prioritize personal happiness and family time over corporate success.
His job required 70+ hours weekly, leaving little time for personal growth. Now, focusing on LinkedIn, he has secured consulting gigs but earns less than 10% of his former salary. Despite financial concerns, Chowdhury values his newfound freedom and aims to create a sustainable remote income.
