Can I make more as a CFA in the long run as compared to a computer engineer with bachelors degree in india?

I must add that I am doing good in tech as well. The pay is also good. But is CFA better?

A qualified CFA will be able to significantly earn more than a B.Eng in India both in short term and even more in long term, however since B.Eng is a more generic qualification, depending on which specific technology workstream & industry one ends up in there would be exception cases who will make it big and may end up earning more than CFA, but these cases would be exceptions rather then the norm.

However, bear in mind that CFA credential is only relevant if you can clear all 3 levels and complete the program and the program is very challenging. Anything less than that will not have much market value in long term irrespective of what the recent changes by CFA institute are trying to spin that narrative about Level 1 & Level 2 badges, credentials etc.

It's sad to see people with 2-3 years of experience getting paid more than you when u have double the experience. 😄 Best part is they are still complaining of getting less.

Come out of your comfort zone and start looking for new opportunities. I think this is the best time to switch if u haven't already in quite some time.
