My father retired from HCL and is receiving a pension of Rs 2200 from EPS after serving 40 years. Can we apply for a revision of the pension under EPS based on the actual wages exceeding the wages limit when the employer deposited 12% of the actual wages (above the statutory wages ceiling).

Although the EPS'95 has provisions for enhancing pension based on actual salary, EPFO has agreed to implement this only for non-exempted organizations. It is not clear whether HCL falls under an exempted trust (i.e., PF is managed by PF Trust of HCL) or not. The matter regarding the extension of revised pension benefits based on actual salary in the case of exempted trusts is already before the High Courts and Supreme Court. Please await their decision.

I was retired in June 2016 from a Cooperative Store. My employer paid their contribution of 12% for the full salary exceeding the wage limit. Now, I am receiving a pension of Rs. 2475. Am I eligible for full pension?
