My question is, is quitting banking for becoming C.s a right decision? I am 28 & working with a small-sized banking company at middle-management level. I have already enrolled myself for c.s exec prog. My salary is around 3 - 4 lacs p.a. and 15 yrs down the line, it may at best become 12-15 lacs p.a. I currently find studying for c.s very interesting & engaging.

Thank you all. What I am most desperate about knowing is, does being a C.S have a better growth potential than being in banking (i mean normal branch banking, i am not talking about specialised verticals). Worst, my job doesnt leave me enough time for C.S studies. As I am slowly turning 30, I want to take a decision which will make a positive difference in my life. Also, can somebody tell me whether my banking experience will in anyway help me get a better job after I become C.S?

Since your main area is banking I think it will definitely give u an edge since u will be more conversant with corporate and banking laws after doing CS. Your area of work would expand depending on how deeper knowledge of the subject you gain.
At the same time however my advice would be to manage somehow ur job with CS exams. Its difficult but not impossible. All the best.
