25M, Which path should I select?

Hi everyone I am 25M I currently work in tech as a python developer in Pune and have a total of 1 yr of experience ( 6 months experience in Power BI and 6 months current experience as a Python Developer)

I have already tried the Sbi clerk job as well but the rural posting and sales profile didn't go well with me so I came back to IT.

I have 3 paths currently in front of me with certain pros and cons

Path 1: Stay in tech but as all of you know the AI revolution and layoffs uncertainty is always there and I am not a fan of deep development and coding.

I can either prepare alongside my job for a tech role which doesn't involve much coding and switch next year.

Path 2: Try for IBPS SO/SSC CGL/Insurance

I can try for these exams alongside my job for the next 4-5 years

Path 3: Get into a Tier 1.5-2 Mba but I know ROI isn't promising and it will cost a lot of money It doesn't feel safe to take heavy loans and create unnecessary pressure on parents.

All paths have some pros and cons but after all that uncertainty after graduating in 2023 i have had 2 yrs of gap and i really don't know what I will do it i get laid off someday as it happened with my colleague last week.

Can anyone suggest what would the ideal path be for moving ahead as depending upon this IT job of 30-35k per month and not making any backup can be risky.
