Pension of pre 1.1.96 retiree fixed as per Supreme Court order dated 9.9.2008
Pension of pre 1.1.96 retiree fixed after 1.1.2006 i.e. 6th CPC recommendations
While pay of the Brig after the 4th CPC was fixed at Rs 5100/- + Rank Pay Rs 1200/-, the pay of Major General was fixed at Rs 6700/-.

Maj Gen SPS Vains (IC 12548)

DoC: 11.06.1961
DoR: 31.10.1995
QS: 34 y 04 m 20 days
(Restricted to 33 years)
Last pay Rs 6700/-
Ten months average emoluments Rs 6900/-
(In this case officer had drawn pay of Rs 6700/- and stagnation increment of Rs 200/- during last 10 months. As such average remained Rs 6900/-.)

CALCULATION OF PENSION AT THE TIME OF RETIREMENT

In case of officers retired after 1.1.1986, pension is to be calculated in terms of GoI letter dated 30.10.1987. As per Para 6.1, the retiring pension is calculated at 50% of average emoluments. For lesser QS the amount will be proportionately reduced. In this case the emoluments were Rs 6900/-     

Therefore, Retiring Pension =
QS x average emoluments for 10 months
2x 33

= 33 x 6900  = Rs 3450
      2 x 33

The above amount was sanctioned by PPO No. xxxx/164/95
Revision of pension under V CPC by Consolidation

In case of officer retired before 1.1.1996 the existing pension as on 31.12.1995 was to be consolidated in terms of GoI letter dated 24.11.1997 with effect from 1.1.1996 by adding together
(i) the existing pension/family pension
(ii) Dearness relief up to CPI 1510 i.e. @ 148%, 111% and 96% of basic pension as admissible on 1.1.1996 vide DP & PW OM No. 42/8/96 – P & PW (G) dated 20.3.1996 
(iii) Interim relief I
(iv) Interim Relief II
(v) Fitment weightage @ 40% of the existing pension/family pension

The working consolidated pension in this case as per above formula is as given hereunder:
(i) Existing pension: Rs 3450
(ii) Dearness relief @ 96% subject to a minimum of Rs 3330) = Rs 3330
(iii) Interim relief I = Rs 345
(iv) Interim Relief II = Rs 50
(v) Fitment weightage = Rs 1380
Total     = Rs 8555

Revision of pension under V CPC under MODIFIED PARITY  as per GoI letter dated 7.6.1999

Pension is calculated as 50% of the minimum of revised pay scale of pay introduced w.e.f. 1.1.1996 for the rank last held by the commissioned officer at the time of his/her retirement. In case of less than maximum required service for full pension, Pension is reduced pro rata. The scale for Maj Gen under V CPC – Rs 18400-22400

Minimum of scale = Rs 18400

Pension = QS x Pay
                     2 x 33 
               = 33 x 18400
                        2 x 33
              = Rs 9200

But as per note given under Para 6.1. of GoI letter dated 30.10.1997 the retiring pension of an officer in the rank of Maj Gen shall not be lesser than the pension which would have been admissible to him/her had he/she not been promoted to higher rank.
The scale of Brig under V CPC = Rs 16700-400-18050
Rank Pay = Rs 2400
Minimum of scale = Rs 16700 + 2400 = Rs 19100

Pension = QS x Pay
                       2 x 33
               = 33 x 19100
                       2 x 33
= Rs 9550 (pension of Brigadier)

Therefore the pension of Maj Gen stepped up to Rs 9550 under GoI MoD letter dated 7.6.1999 vide PPO No. M/MODP/xxxxx/99  
Revision of pension under 5th CPC under Govt letter dated 15.7.2009 issued in implementation of Supreme Court order dated 9.9.2009

As per the order, the pay of all pensioners in the rank of Maj Gen and its equivalent in the two other Wings of the Defence Services be notionally fixed at the rate given to similar officers of the rank after revision of pay scales w.e.f. 1.1.1996 and thereafter to compute their pensionary benefits on such basis with prospective effect from the date of filing of the writ petition

Pay re-fixed in terms of GoI MoD letter dated 15.7.2009 = Rs 20000

Pension = QS x Pay
                      2 x 33 
              = 33 x 20000
                     2 x 33
              = Rs 10000/-

The above amount of pension was revised vide PPO/M/MODP/xxx/2009
Revision of pension under 6th CPC (by consolidation)

In case of officers retired before 1.1.2006, pension is to be consolidated in terms of Govt letter dated 11.11.2008 with effect from 1.1.2006 by adding together

(i) The existing pension/family pension
(ii) Dearness Pension, if any, as applicable to those retired/died prior to 1.4.2004
(iii) Dearness relief up to CPI 536 i.e. @ 24% of basic pension/family pension plus dearness pension
(iv) Fitment weightage @ 40% of the existing pension/family pension

The working of consolidated pension in this case as per above formula is as given hereunder:

(i) Existing pension = Rs 10000
(ii) Dearness Pension = Rs 5000
(iii) Dearness relief @ 24% = Rs 3600
(iv) Fitment weightage = Rs 4000

Total = Rs 22600  
Revision of pension under CI CPC (Under Modified Parity)

The consolidation of pension will further be subject to provision in terms of Para 5 of letter of 11.11.2008 that the consolidated pension in no case shall be lower than 50% of the minimum of the pay in pay band plus grade pay corresponding to the pre-revised scale from which the pensioner had retired. The pension so calculated will be reduced pro-rata in case of less than maximum required service to earn full pension. The scale of Maj Gen under VI CPC
(a) Pay Band PB-4 = 37400-67000
(b) Grade Pay = Rs 10000
(c) MSP (Notional) = Rs 6000

(d) Minimum of scale = Rs 37400+10000+6000 = Rs 53400

Pension = QS x Pay
                     2x 33
              = 33 x 53400
                       2 x 33
             = Rs 26700
Therefore, the pension w.e.f 1.1.2006 under modified parity is beneficial compared to pension calculated under consolidation formula.
Therefore, revised pension w.e.f. = Rs 26700/-

Minimum of scale = Rs 18400

Pension = QS x Pay
                       2x 33
               = 33 x 18400
                        2 x 33
             = Rs 9200
But as per note given under Para 6.1. of GoI letter dated 30.10.1997 the retiring pension of an officer in the rank of Maj Gen shall not be lesser than the pension which would have been admissible to him/her had he/she not been promoted to higher rank.

Calculation of Pension: In case of officers retired on or after 1.1.2006, linkage of full pension with 33 years of qualifying service has been dispensed with. The pension is calculated at 50% of the emoluments last drawn or average of reckonable emoluments drawn during last 10 months, whichever is more beneficial.

In the above case ten months average will not be beneficial

Last pay drawn = Rs 54870 + 10000 = 64870. Therefore pension calculated at 50% of emoluments last drawn Rs 64870 = 32345 per month w.e.f. 1.2.2006.
