Dear All, Can you please help me in calculation of Pension scheme? Suppose if a person has 20 years of experience and he has around 50,000/- contributed towards pension scheme, what is the calculation on a monthly basis which he will be entitled to receive?

Hey,
The simple formula is last 12 months average pay from the month of superannuation divided by 70 multiplied by length of total service rendered.
Conditions - minimum 10 years of service rendered and attended the minimum age of 50 years and other criterias as laids down because the secheme was effective from 1995.

to add the benefit will be continued till death of the pensioner and in case of death widow pension will be reduced to 50% to the nominee. Thanks, R.K.P
Hai guys
This the working with example
[b]Those who joined AFTER 15.11.1995[/b]
Here, the formula of calculation of pension is similar to that of a Govt. Employee. ie.,
Average Salary X Service
-------------
70
Maximum service for the calculation of service is 35 yrs. If a member has maximum service, pension will be:
Average Salary
-------------------

The Average Salary here refers is named as pensionable salary in the scheme. It is arrived by considering the average contributing salary preceeding 12 months from the date of exit
Eventhough you may be drawing Rs.20,000/- as salary per month, your company need to contribute only Rs. 541/- towards pension fund
Those who joined BEFORE 15.11.1995
Here, the formula of calculation of pension is:
Past Service benifit + Pensionable service benefit - Proportionate reduction
subject to minimum pension specified for each group.
( X - Rs.800 , Y - Rs.600, Z - Rs.500 )
These three categories of members are defined with reference to their age as on 16.11.1995 as follows:
„h X : those who have not attained 48 years
„h Y : those who have attained 48 years but less that 53 years ; and
„h Z : those who have attained 53 years or more.
Past service benefit:Portion of pension amount because of your service before 15.11.1995(For the calculation of this you have to refer 2 tables) Pensionable Service Benefit:Portion of pension amount because of your service after 15.11.1995(same as the calculation of pension who joined after 15.11.1995) Proportionate reduction: if the past service is less than 24 years and past service benifit + Pensionable service pension is less than Rs.500/-
For a member who joined EPF before 15.11.1995 have 3 components in Pension calculation:
(a)Past Service Benefit (b)Pensionable Service Benefit (c)Proportionate Reduction
For those who joined after 15.11.1995, only the 2nd component, viz., Pensionable Service Benefit is applicable
1. Past Service benefit: depends upon the wage as on 15.11.1995 and the service rendered in FPF '71 ( i.e. upto 15.11.1995 ) is as shown below: TABLE - A
Past Service Benefit in Rs. Benefit in Rs.
Wages as on 15.11.1995 is upto Rs.2500/ Wages as on 15.11.1995 is more than Rs.2500/-

More than 11 years but upto 15 years 95 105
More than 15 years but less than 20 years 120 135
Beyond 20 years 150 170
The above amount is the benefit payable on completion of 58 years of age as on 16.11.1995.
For the calculation of pension benefits before 58 years (if a member do not complete 58 years of age on 15.11.1995, his past service benefit will be increased by the below factor - Early pension cases ) the above benefit is multiplied by the TABLE - B factor to arrive at the past service benefit.

If Years to 58 of age from 15.11.1995 is: then factor is:

The argument that the maximum Pensionable Service is 35 years is wrong. If an employee renders 40 years of service after 16.11.95, then their pensionable service will be 40+2=42 years.
For pension calculation, the service will be divided into two parts: service before 16.11.95 and service from 16.11.95 onwards. The first part is called past service, and the latter is referred to as pensionable service. Past service is divided into four slabs: service up to 11 years, 12 to 15 years, 16 to 19 years, and 20 years & above. If the salary on 16.11.95 is below Rs. 2500, the monthly compensation will be Rs. 80, 95, 120, and 150, respectively. For salaries of Rs. 2500 & above, the compensation will be Rs. 85, 105, 135, and 170. These amounts apply to those who turn 58 years old on 16.11.95. For those who reach 58 years after 16.11.95, the compensation will be multiplied by a factor specified in Table B, based on the time difference between 16.11.95 and the date of turning 58.
To calculate pensionable service, there is a formula: Pensionable Salary x Pensionable Service / 70. Pensionable salary can be categorized into three groups: 1) Below Rs. 6500. 2) Rs. 6500 & above, but contribution at the statutory ceiling of Rs. 6500. 3) Above Rs. 6500 & opted to contribute based on actual salary. In the second case, pensionable salary is Rs. 6500. In the other two cases, the pensionable salary will be the average of the last twelve months. Additionally, if the pensionable service is 20 years & above, a 2-year bonus will be granted.

One example I can provide:
Date of Birth - 2.1.1961
Date of Joining - 23.2.1987
Salary on 16.11.95 - Rs. 2500 & above
Salary upon completion of 58 years on 1.1.2019 - Rs. 6500 (Statutory Ceiling)
Past Service - 8 years 9 months (approx.) rounded to 9 years
Compensation - Rs. 85
Factor as per Table B (for less than 24 years, i.e., the difference between 16.11.95 & 1.1.2019) - 6.102
(This can be calculated as 1.08 to the power of 24 - 0.5, rounded to 3 decimals)
Past Service Benefit - 85 x 6.102 = Rs. 519 - (A)
Pensionable Service - 23 years
Bonus (Service is 20 years & above) - 2
Pensionable Salary - Rs. 6500
Pensionable Benefit - 6500 x 25 / 70 = 2321 - (B)
Total Pension - (A) + (B) = Rs. 2840
I will insert an Excel worksheet to calculate the pension. Enter the Date of Birth, Date of Joining, Date of Separation from Service, Salary on 16.11.95, Salary on Separation from Service (in compliance with the contribution to the pension fund), and any breaks in service before and after 16.11.95, if applicable, in the green column. The results will appear in the yellow column. The red column is for static information.

My brother died after 2 years of service with a total salary of 10,000 per month. The company applied for widow pension for the wife and kid through the EPF scheme. I believe it is 50% for the wife and 25% of the total pension for the kid. However, how do I calculate the total pension?

Dear Surfingminds,
Either the equivalent of member pension or widow pension, as per Table C, whichever is higher, will be given as a pension in this case. Here, as the service is below 10 years, member pension is not applicable. According to Table C, the equivalent widow pension is Rs. 2051. Additionally, each child (up to two at a time) will receive 25% of the widow's pension, i.e., Rs. 513.

Hi Friends,
I am Suresh from Chennai and need your help on PF and Pension. I would really appreciate it if someone could help me out. My current PF balance (Employer + Employee) is 2,39,617, and the pension balance is 54,229. It would be really helpful if someone could calculate the total amount for PF (EE + ER) and Pension with a 4% increase year on year. I plan to retire at the age of 55, and my current age is 34 years.
Here is my current deduction from the PF account: Employee contribution: 1,908, Employer contribution: 658, Pension Scheme: 1,250.
Thanks a ton in advance,
Suresh
