What is the option to choose pension on higher wages in EPS?

When an employee has to select the option of higher pension, he chooses the option of higher employer contribution in the EPS pension plan. Note that employees who were members of EPF on September 1, 2014 can choose the option of higher pension. On choosing this option, the extra amount is deposited in a separate pension fund, which keeps increasing gradually due to the interest received on that money. In this way the total pension amount increases.
