I worked for an investment bank for 7 years - 4 years in operations and rest all in risk profile. I have a daughter of 1.5 years and they were calling me to office, so had to leave my job.
Now I am giving interviews for last 6 months , stating that I have got all exp related to Risk profile only, I have given too many interviews but didn't cleared anything from big 4 to product / service based companies. I am looking for wfh option and against 6.5 , I am asking for 10-12 lpa, is it too much?

No, the ask is on the lower end only. In that scenario you should be a steal deal for the market. I think you should reevaluate a bit, take a break of say 3-4 weeks from interviews and maybe do two things:
1. Focused study on the areas you’re going wrong / types of profile you’re applying for
2. Mock interviews to ensure you’re communication is on spot - concise and clear

If you are doing these 2 right you should be hired immediately.

I found a company I was really excited about working at. I applied for the job and went through 5 rounds of interviews. At the end they said I was OVER qualified and they want me for a different position higher up in the company. I was super excited they then had me go through 5 more rounds, 3/5 people were the same. The interviews mostly went "didn't you get the job, I highly recommend you? I'll just put you down as a 10". After those were done they told me I was UNDER qualified. Can't win!
