EPS 95 pensioners who retired before 1.9.2014 without exercising the option will not benefit. However, those who are still continuing in service stand a chance after filling the joint option. Pensioners retiring on or after 1.9.2014 will have 4 months from 4.11.2022 to exercise the option to receive the increased pension benefits.

Dear PF Experts,
I also have a query on the issue. I have opted to contribute to the pension fund until the age of 60 years and am contributing Rs. 15,000. My superannuation will be at the age of 60 on June 24. This means I have 18 more months before superannuation.
Can anybody guess or clarify what benefits I can have in line with the recent judgment of the Hon'ble Supreme Court?

In my case, I retired at the age of 60 in the year 2013, and EPS deduction was done till I was 58 years old. I wasn't aware if exercising the option of deduction till 60 years of age existed at that time.
I am now receiving a small amount as a pension. What options, if any, are available now?

Dear Mr V. Raghunathan A joint option under clause 11(3) has to be exercised by employee and employer. This states you will contribute in excess of statutory limit and on actual salary.
