No there is no age barrier to pursue PhD course. To pursue PhD course you must have completed your masters degree in any discipline from recognised University with minimum 60% marks and relaxation in upper age limit is given to reserved categories.

There is no specific age limit required for PhD course. Those satisfy the educational qualification and qualify in the UGC NET entrance exam are eligible to apply. In order to eligible for PhD course, one must at least be Master degree holder in concerned specialization from a recognized university. The candidate must secure minimum 55% of marks at Master degree course.

To do Ph.D, you need to appear in the UGC NET examination which is the entrance examination to take admission in Ph.D.
The eligibility criteria required to appear in the UGC NET examination is that a candidate must have completed Master's Degree course from a recognized University with 55% of marks.
Once you qualify in the NET examination, you can definitely take admission under Ph.D degree course.
There is no age criteria for NET examination.
