There is good news for the employees who retired under the old pension scheme. The Pension and Pensioners Welfare Department of the Government of India has prepared a plan to increase the pension of retired employees by 20 to 100 percent. To get additional pension or additional compassionate allowance, retired employees will have to fulfill the age condition.

If they are between 80 years to 85 years of age, then their basic pension will be increased by 20 percent. That means they will get 20 percent additional pension or additional compassionate allowance. After crossing a certain age, the pension of retired employees can increase by 100 percent as additional pension or additional compassionate allowance.

An office memorandum in this regard has been issued by the Department of Pension and Pensioners’ Welfare on October 18. The Department of Pension and Pensioners’ Welfare is the nodal department for formulation of policies relating to pension and other retirement benefits of Central Government employees covered under the Central Civil Services (Pension) Rules, 1972. Conditions have been laid down for grant of additional pension to retired civil servants of the Central Government covered under the Central Civil Services (Pension) Rules, 2021.

As per the provisions of sub-rule 6 of rule 44 of the CCS (Pension) Rules, 2021 read with erstwhile rule 49(2-A) of the CCS (Pension) Rules, 1972, retired Government servants after attaining the age of eighty years or above shall be granted additional pension or additional compassionate allowance in addition to the pension or compassionate allowance admissible under the rules.

Additional pension or additional compassionate allowance will be paid from the first day of the calendar month in which it becomes payable. For example, a pensioner born on August 20, 1942 will be eligible for additional pension at the rate of twenty per cent of the basic pension from August 1, 2022. A pensioner born on August 1, 1942 will also be eligible for additional pension at the rate of twenty per cent of the basic pension from August 1, 2022.

The Central Government has requested all Ministries/Departments and Pension Disbursing Authorities/Banks to inform all concerned parties for compliance with the above provisions of the Central Civil Services (Pension) Rules, 2021.

If the age of the retiring employee is between 80 to 85, he will get 20 percent additional pension. If the age of the employee is between 85 to 90 years, then he will be entitled to 30 percent additional pension. If the age of the employee is between 90 to 95 years, then the basic pension will increase by 40 percent. Similarly, if the age of the employee is between 95 to 100 years, then his basic pension will increase by an additional 50 percent. If a retiring employee has crossed 100 years, then his basic pension will increase by an additional 100 percent.

Dr. Manjit Singh Patel, National President of ‘National Mission for Old Pension Scheme India’ says, this formula has been decided by the Government of India on the basis of Central Civil Services Rules 2021. He has urged the Government of India to also give the benefit of this rule to those who choose option 1 in the case of death and disability covered under the National Pension System Amendment Act 2021 (CCS Rules 1972) of the Government of India.

The reason is, in case of death and disability, the Government of India has given freedom to the employees to choose any one option between NPS Exit Rules 2015 and CCS Rules 1972. In such a situation, this rule should also apply to those who have opted for the option of CCS Rules 1972.
