Pension instructions for pre-2016 retirees issued, based on 7th Pay Commission orders


The Ministry of Defence has issued the instructions for payment of pensions implementing the recommendations of the 7th Central Pay Commission. 


The rates of disability element have not been reduced for now and shall continue to be paid as per existing amounts under the existing percentage based formula till the issue is resolved by the Anomalies Committee. 

The note under Paragraph of 12 of the new letter related to non-grant of additional quantum of pension to pensioners aged 80 years and above as far as their disability/war injury elements are concerned is incongruous and shall be taken up with the Government for rectification at the earliest. The same is the strange result of an incoherent recommendation which was discussed earlier in the post of 30 September 2016 in the following terms:

Enhancement of old age pension for disability and war injury pensioners: The strangest part of this entry is the fact that the Defence Services had indeed asked for this, and the commission actually rejected it and the Ministry of Defence has accepted that rejection. I say it is strange because the Government had already clarified way back in 2010 that additional old age pension very much applies to disability and war injury pensioners. Hence the Defence Services HQ had demanded and the 7th CPC and the Ministry of Defence rejected something that stood granted and clarified way back in 2010 by the Government which becomes clear from this letter issued in 2010 which can be accessed by clicking here. This single instance should be an indicator enough of the expertise and institutional memory available at various echelons of our systems. Unfortunate, to say the least!

  4. Much awaited implementation order on 7 Cpc for AF pensioners is now a reality. LET US HOPE THAT cppc OF ALL DISBURSING BANKS will take expeditious action in this regard.
    As per orders the order the OROP pension is to be multiplied by 2.57 to arrive at the new pension.
    The OROP is paid on pro-rata basis now. So naturally has to be refixed in accordance with MGP. Till such time will it not be difficult to calculate the arrears and DA. As of now there is difference in OROP pension for those who served only 15 yrs compared to who served longer.
    Please correct me if I am wrong

      There is nothing. New on the order issued bu DEDW regardong pension calculationi This favtor of 2.57 multiple was out three months ago. We were expecting they will issue order for defence pensions wirh DL 33 yrs servive. So that they issue order also implimenting MSP & X Grp pay aswell as suggested by the 7th cpc.
      It appears they would do it on parts tp show off to the public that they are doing a lot by increasing pension of ex servicemen and families many times.
      Let us wait and watch for the next order.

  9. The PM is making all out efforts to stand by the forces...
    That's Good in one way.
    BUT... A few concerns which need to be resolved at the earliest for maintaing the morale of the defence services... They are
    1 There needs to be a distinguistion between the Defence Services and the Central Police Services.... It is clear now that Police services now being an ORGANISED service is getting much higher pay, perks and benefits. The Defence forces are reduced to begging for their pay and perks..
    The morale of Defence Services has been systematically reduced to minimum
    The MoD is confronting every issue related to the Defense forces fit no reason..
    God knows when the PM will look into it or will he actually look into it

    1. Kudos. Hope and wish this nation decides in favour of OROP. Soldier, irrespective of rank, can not be equated in terms of money.

  11. The multiplication factor 2.57 on basic as on 31.12.2015 what about DL 33 basic, notified by circular 568 ? Pension basic as on 31.12.2015 should be the amount under circular 568 or OROP basic which ever is higher, should be taken as base for the multiplication same is not mentioned in the notification .

  16. The way The PM speaks ( spoke to troops to day some field areas in HP) sounds very encouraging but it gives the feeling that the MOD under Parekar seems to be from Pakistan. Also it gives the impression that the the P M is not aware of the cold war going between the M OD and Defence Forces No one in MOD listens to the R M. The recent examples are the letter issued by MOD on disability and down gradation of rank ( status) of Serving officers vis -a -vis the civilians in the MOD. The civilian staff including the C G D A were basically created to help and serve the defence forces so that they ( Def Forces)concentrate on their primary job and do not get bogged down in day to day administrating functioning. Unfortunately these people have become the masters and have started dictating their own terms to the defence forces. The problem is nothing but a typical babugiri. It is a every where in India any office one visits one finds same thing . A person who is supposed to be making payment to an individual thinks that firstly why that person is getting the benefits and secondly why not me. In the Indian system a Patwari ,who keeps the records of the land holdings of public in rural areas starts thinking that he is the actual owner of the land and does so many wrong things to benefit himself. This tendency needs to be curbed. We in the defence forces work on some ethos and principals to keep our selves motivated. If we dont follow that we will be like civil police with chappals on our feet, pan in our mouth and gamcha on our shoulders . ( no Offence to Police force) Our R M must exert and not to get swayed away by the people at the MOD . His reputation as R M of India is at stake It is the time to end the on going war between the services and the M OD. Every one must do his assigned task rather than boss around. No one is serving any one but the Mother India. If the PM and RM do not check the ongoing war between the Defence forces and the MOD our enemies across the borders are having a hearty laugh. never know these very enemies may have their hands in creating such situatation. Hope this message reaches the PM and RM.
