NEW PROCEDURE TO CALCULATE
DISABILITY ELEMENT.
As per the earlier Pay
commissions, the Rate of Disability elements was at a fixed Rate for Ranks.
For example as per V th
Pay Commission,
100% Disability element
for a Sepoy to Havildar was-----1550.00
For
JCOs…………………………………………………………………………1900.00
For Commissioned Officers
including Hony.Offrs………… 2600.00
This was a flat Rate.
Now as per latest
orders ( Ref.CDA cir 485), the
Disability Element is calculated on the Emolument drawn by the soldier at the time
of retirement/ discharge. Hence the DE
will vary for each soldier .
Illustration:
A Naik, Group- Y,
Qly.Service-16.5 yrs , Post 2006
retiree:
Pay scale :
Pay-7870, Grade pay-2400, MSP-2000, Class All-150= 12420
So his emolument was=
12420, Disability of 100% = 30% of
emolument So 100 % DE will be= 12420*30= 3720.
Now, say his Disability Element sanctioned
was 20%
His DE will be 20% of 3720=
744/.
Earlier it was a flat rate of 3510*20%=702.
Like wise each individual
will get different rate of Disability element according to his Emolument.
Note: This DE is
eligible on the Rank at which he was discharged
and not on the Rank on which he became Disabled .
On calculation under the
new order, there is no effect for Pre-2006 retirees up to the rank of
Havildar. Nb.Sub and above are
benefited.
Dear veteran brothers, the
affected people can approach their Banks for getting the enhanced Disability
pension.
