Hi Everybody and Seniors in HR,
I'm working as an EDP Manager. My doubt is, if anyone worked for more than 10 years, are they eligible for a pension? So, my question is, suppose he has 300,000/- in pension amount. Can he get a pension for that amount? What about the 300,000/- amount? EPF Co. only gives an interest amount for the pension; they do not provide any principal amount. So, if the employee passes away after 2 or 3 years, will his family receive a pension? What happens to the 300,000/- amount if he has no wife, son, or daughter?
This is my question.

Dear Smkarthik,
Your question is very genuine. Monthly pension means it is the interest on our deposits. Then what about our deposit? Because of this reason, section 13 has been introduced to give 'Return on Capital.' According to this clause, either after the death of the member, the nominee will receive 100 times the original pension amount, or after the death of the member and widow/widower, the nominee will receive 90 times the original pension amount, or after 20 years, the member/nominee will receive 100 times the original pension (3 options). However, as per GSR No. 688 (E) dated September 26, 2008, this provision along with commutation has been deleted. None of the Trade Unions in India have raised any objections but continue to demand a hike in pension.
If the member has no dependents, he can nominate another person to receive subsequent benefits.

I have clearly stated that the provision of 'Return of Capital' is already deleted. But in the case of those already entertained the option can avail the benefit. Abbas.P.S

To qualify for a pension, the conditions are:
1. The member should have a service (past + pensionable) of 10 years in EPS.
2. If the member continues in service, completion of 58 years is required.
3. If not in service, a pension (with a reduction of 4% for each year below 58 years) can be availed after reaching 50 years.
