My date of birth is 18th September 1960. I have been informed by my organization that I will retire on 17th September 2018, which is on attaining the age of 58 years. My query... technically isn't 17th September 2018 still in my 57th year? Also, does attaining the age of 58 start from 18th September 2018, or will it be 17th September 2019? Need legal help on this, please.

Age is computed on the basis of completed years only. Right from your date of birth, you would be completing 58 years of age just a day before your actual date of birth, i.e., 17-09-2018. From 18-09-2018, you would be stepping into your 59th year of age. Therefore, your management's contention is correct. Even in the case of government employees who are permitted to retire on the last working day of their birth month irrespective of the actual day of birth in the month, a person born on the first day of a month would be retired on the last day of the previous month only.

Dear Friends,
There should not be any type of misunderstanding; the age of retirement is fixed at 58 years. 58 years can be completed on any date of the month. It is a universal practice - if the employee's date of birth is within 15 days, then management can relieve them on the last day of the previous month; otherwise, it will be the last day of the current month.
Queries like this have been discussed earlier as well.

As per your date of birth, your retirement date would be 17th September 2018. There is nothing wrong since on 17/09/18, you are completing the age of 58 years, and thereafter your age would always be 58 plus. The date informed to you by your organization is correct, and 17/08/2018 will be your last working day.
You can seek legal help, but it would reap nothing other than unnecessary expenditure and mental agony.

However, retirement age is decided upon the completion of a stipulated age. In your case, if the company has fixed the retirement age at 58 years, then retirement becomes effective upon reaching 58 years. Considering your birth date is 18-09-1960, you will complete 58 years on the night of 17-09-2018 at 00:00 hours, which marks the beginning of the next date, i.e., 18-09-2018. Therefore, in essence, you will have completed 58 years at 00:00 hours on the night of 17-09-2018 (or you could also refer to it as the start of the morning of the next day).
