(i)All the civilian personnel including CAPF who implementation of the Seventh CPC recommendations) shall first be fixed in the pay Matrix being recommended by this commission, on the basis of the Pay Band and Grade Pay at which they retired, at the minimum of the corresponding level in the Matrix. This amount shall be raised, to arrive at the notional pay of the retiree, by adding the number of increments he/she had earned in that number of increments he/she had earned in that level while in service, at the rate of three percent. Fifty percent of the total amount so arrived at shall be the revised pension.

(ii) The second calculation to be carried out is as follows. The pension, as had been fixed at the time of implementation of the VI CPC recommendations, shall be multiplied by 2.57 to arrive at an alternate value for the revised pension.

(iii) Pensioners may be given the option of choosing whichever formulation is beneficial to them.

It is recognized that the fixation of pension as per formulation in (i) above may take a little time since the records of each pensioner will have to be checked to ascertain the number of increments earned in the retiring level.

In the event calculation as per (i) above yields a higher amount the difference may be paid

subsequently.(Para 10.1.67 and Para 10.1.68 of the Report)

    By. Allowing the option for pensioners some cases would crop up where a person who got promotion at the fag end of his service and retired before drawing any increment would draw lesser pension than. His junior in the lower grade who retired without such promotion. In other words that person. Would be getting more pension had he not accepted the promotion. This is no doubt an anomaly and needs the attention of the committee.

    Payments related clarification not cleared to pay including arrears of 7 month at the end of August’16, whether automatically enhanced by the paying authorities that means by bank/postal where from the pensioners drawing their monthly pension or after revising PPO order issued by their pension authority from where they had been retired.
    Then it will take time and pensioners may not be effected immediately. Sometimes later by five to six months.
    Any one may please clear me early.

    What about the commuted part of the pension in case of post 1.6.2006 retiries.

    Will the commuted percentage will be on the basis of pension fixed as per 7th pay commission or will it be the actual part commuted at the time of retirement.

    The fixed medical allowances has to be increased from Rs.500/- to Rs.1000/-, why the commission has not recommended has to be reviewed by the government.

    The commission does not enhanced the family pension from 10 years to some extent in case of death of a serving employee and the government may kindly enhance the family pension period from 10 years to 20 years.

    The quantum of minimum pension has to be enhanced to Rs.15000/- instead of Rs.9000/- because another pay commission will take place after 10 years or so.
