Mr. Agarwal,

Good morning.

My friend is working in a semi-government organization and has been in service for 32 years as a Head Assistant. However, after retirement, her pension has been calculated at Rs. 2880 per month. Could you please explain the calculation? Also, I would like to know what the minimum and maximum pension amounts are for the EPF scheme.

Kindly provide me with the necessary information.

Is it possible to apply for a higher pension with EPFO for employees who are still working? If yes, please inform me about the formalities and procedures.

I will be retiring in July 2019, and before that, I would like to apply for a higher pension. I am ready to pay the arrears of contribution at 8.33% of my basic salary to secure a higher pension.

Thank you and best regards,

Mr. Agarwal,

Good afternoon. I have served 33 years in a deemed university (Gitam, Visakhapatnam). I retired on 31st March 2018. However, after retirement, my pension is calculated at Rs. 3020 per month. Could you please explain the calculation? Also, I would like to inquire about the minimum and maximum pension under the EPF scheme. Am I eligible for a higher pension scheme, and should I come under EPS?

Kindly provide me with the necessary information.

Thank you,

Dear All,

I need a small clarification. I have been in service since 1995 and have not withdrawn my PF contribution since 1996. I have another 13 years of service remaining. Am I eligible for a higher pension contribution? Can I contribute to the same? What is the procedure for this?

Thanks in advance,

Dear All,

I have gone through the same and understand that what the Honorable Supreme Court means to convey is that besides Basic and DA, any other component of salary and wages which is fixed in nature will be considered as salary and wages. Other variable factors of salary will not come under this definition of wages and salary.

So, if a company is supposed to be giving Basic, HRA, Conveyance Allowance, Washing Allowance, and Other Allowance as salary/wages components, but all components are fixed, EPF will be considered on the gross salary (including HRA).
