What you’re getting is correct - the curve that you are extruding shrinks to 30% of its size over the distance of the extrude - that’s what it’s designed to do when you change the scale. What shape are you trying to achieve? To get rid of the pinch, change the scale back to 1.

Is there any way to reduce the scale without it gradually shrinking to 30%?

The object is going to be a handle for my lamp model
