Special Family pensioners approached us for guidance.SPECIAL FAMILY PENSION REVISED FURTHER
The Rate of Special Family pension was 2550 minimum as per V th Pay commission and was revised as per VI th PC, CDA Cir 397, Annexure-I as 5763 and again revised as Rs.7000 minimum as per CDA cir 410 with effect from 1-1-2006.
Now the GOI, MOD has come out with a formula for calculating the rate of Special Family Pension as per their Letter No: 17(4)/ 2008(1)/ D (Pen/Policy) –Vol-V dated 15-2-2011.
The formula is,” Special Family pension shall not be less than 60% of the minimum of the Pay in the Pay band for the Rank and Group plus Grade pay, Military Service pay and X group pay wherever applicable.”
On calculating by this method, it is found that there is no change in the Rate , up to the Rank of Havildar and equivalent Ranks in Navy and Air Force.
From Nk.Sub and above , there is increase in the pension.
ILLUSTRATION:
For Wife of a Subedar, Group-‘B------ Pay band-2, Range-9300-34800 Gp-4600, MSP=2000
Minimum pay will be =9300 + 4600+2000=15900
60% of the Min.Pay=.15900 X 60%=9540/-
So the revised Special Family pension will be………..9540.00
At present she is being paid at the rate of …………… 7825.00
A monthly difference of……………………… …1715.00 with effect from 1-1-2006
Their monthly pension will be as follows :
Basic pension………………..9540.00
DA at 45% …………………..4293.00
Total….. 13833.00
Add FMA if eligible…. 300.00
Totla pension….. 14133.00

The Exwel Trust is doing a very good service to the Pensioner community. The Banks can make use of the services of this Trust in a Big way. The regular updates in their Blogs are a very good example. The Bankers should read these Blogs and learn Defence pension.
ReplyDeleteThe CPPC of all the Banks should conduct a Pensioners meeting in all the districts once in a year and update all the pension payments.
The should pay compensation for the delayed payment of pension arrears as per RBI instructions.
My best wishes to Exwel Trust team.
