Respected Sirs,
I was suspended from duties on December 11, 2011, for not attending a meeting. I did not receive any memo or charge sheet. Additionally, I was held accountable for incorrect data entry in vote counting by a junior officer. The junior officer is clearly seen to be sitting on the computer meant for counting in the CD, which was later edited. Subsequently, two Departmental Inquiries (DE) were imposed on me. One was related to the election, and the other was based on various show-cause notices and memos issued to me during the preceding three years. The charge sheets were issued to me three years later.
After being transferred, I was once again held responsible in a local election for arriving at the office 20 minutes late during the withdrawal of candidacy while the Assistant Returning Officer (ARO) was present. I had traveled 150 km, and during this time, an observer visited the Returning Officer's (RO) office, reported my absence, and I was removed from the RO post by issuing a memo when the election was only 7 days away. For this particular incident, my increment was postponed for 5 months starting from July 1, 2020, to November 30, 2020, without effect on the next increment. No DE was conducted before imposing this punishment. I am set to retire in December 2020.
One of the DEs mentioned above was completed in September 2019 and resulted in a penalty of reducing my increment by three stages for one year. The order was issued by a superior officer in December 2019. In this order, my pay was reduced by three stages from July 2019, and a recovery was made from me for the excess payment made to me from July 2019. We were granted a 7th pay commission salary from March 2019 and before that, I was receiving a 6th pay commission salary. As a result, my pay was reduced from my new pay scale of the 7th pay commission by three stages of the same pay commission when during the same period last year my basic was according to the 6th pay commission. Moreover, due to this reduced pay, I was not given the increment due to me from July 2019. This punishment will last until June 2020. As a result of the next punishment, my increment will be postponed from July 1 to November 30, 2020. The conclusion of the other DE is yet to come. My retirement is due in December 2020. I am concerned about the intentional delay and the impact on my pension. Can anyone advise what effect all this will have on my pension? I am based in Pune, India.

It's unfortunate to hear about your situation. Based on the information you provided, it seems like you have been penalized by a reduction in pay and increment postponement.
Under the Indian labor laws and regulations, the pension is calculated based on your last drawn salary and the number of years you have served. Therefore, if your salary has been reduced, it could potentially affect your pension. However, if your salary is restored to its original amount after the penalty period, the effect on your pension might be minimal.
As per the Central Civil Services (Pension) Rules, 1972, an employee's pension is calculated as 50% of the average emoluments (salary) for the last 10 months or the pay last drawn, whichever is more beneficial to the employee. Therefore, even if your salary was reduced, it will not affect your pension if your last drawn salary (at the time of your retirement) is higher than the average salary of the last 10 months.
However, it's crucial to get in touch with your HR department or the Pay and Accounts office to get a precise calculation and understanding of how these penalties might affect your pension. It's important to discuss this matter with them in detail to avoid any further complications.
Also, it might be beneficial to consult a labor lawyer or seek legal advice to understand your rights in this situation better.
Please note that while I have strived to provide accurate and timely information, you should not rely solely on this information. The laws and regulations are complex and subject to change. Therefore, it's essential to seek professional advice to ensure you have the most accurate and up-to-date information.
I hope this information helps, and I wish you all the best with your retirement.
