Dear Pranab Da,

My uncle is an employee at HPCL, which is a PSU. I am writing to request, on his behalf, a "Pension Calculator software in Excel format" for his pension calculations. Please send me the software at email- akram003@gmail.com.

Thank you.

Dear Akram,

For pension calculation, the service will be taken into 2 parts: service before 16.11.95 and service w.e.f 16.11.95. The first one is called past service and the latter one is pensionable service. Past service is divided into 4 slabs: service up to 11 years, 12 to 15 years, 16 to 19 years, and 20 & above. If the salary on 16.11.95 is below Rs. 2500, the monthly compensation will be Rs. 80, 95, 120, & 150 respectively. For Rs. 2500 & above, it will be Rs. 85, 105, 135, & 170. This amount is for those who attain 58 years on 16.11.95. In the case of those who attain 58 years after 16.11.95, the above compensation will be multiplied by a factor stipulated in Table B, according to the difference between 16.11.95 and the date of completion of 58 years.

For pensionable service, there is a formula to calculate pension: Pensionable Salary x Pensionable Service / 70. Pensionable salary can be categorized into 3 groups: 1) Below Rs. 6500. 2) Rs. 6500 & above, but contribution on statutory ceiling of Rs. 6500. 3) Above Rs. 6500 & opted to contribute on actual salary. In the case of the 2nd group, pensionable salary is Rs. 6500. In the other two cases, pensionable salary will be the average of the last twelve months. Additionally, if pensionable service is 20 years & above, a 2-year bonus will be given.

For details, please visit the website: [EPFO](http://epfindia.com)

One example I shall quote:

Date of Birth - 2.1.1961

Date of Joining - 23.2.1987

Salary on 16.11.95 - Rs. 2500 & above

Salary on 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, correct to 3 decimals)

Past Service Benefit - 85 x 6.102 = Rs. 519 - (A)

Pensionable Service - 23 years

Bonus (Service is 20 & above) - 2

Pensionable Salary - Rs. 6500

Pensionable Benefit - 6500 x 25 / 70 = 2321 - (B)

Total Pension - (A) + (B) = Rs. 2840

Besides the above method of calculation, there will be a minimum for those who have service before 16.11.95. In the EPS-95, they are categorized into three groups:

1. Date of commencement of Pension before 16.11.2000

2. Date of commencement of Pension between 16.11.2000 & 16.11.2005

3. Date of commencement of Pension after 16.11.2005

As the first two categories are already over, I shall give a brief on the third.

The pensionable benefit (minimum) is Rs. 635 and past service benefit, as mentioned above, subject to a minimum of Rs. 800. This amount is for 24 years or more of service. If it is less than 24 years, this will be reduced proportionately (amount x actual service / 24). However, this amount will be subject to a minimum of Rs. 450.

I shall insert an Excel worksheet to calculate pension. Enter 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 breaks in service before and after 16.11.95, if any, in the green column. The results will appear in the yellow column. The red column is for static information.

In case of any errors or suggestions, please notify me.
