There is no clarity on how pension would be fixed, in respect of employees who retired on or after 01-01-2006. There is no confusion as regards the application of the principle of working out pension as 50% of revised pay . But what is not clear is on how the revised pay would be fixed under 7th Pay Commission. For the sake of equity, revised pay shall be fixed (which forms the basis for fixation of pension ) as follows: Entry Pay for the given Pay Band and Grade Pay as per the Pay Matrix of 7th Pay Commission plus number of increments on earned in the retiring grade (corresponding to the index number). The said procedure needs to be followed to remove the anomalies created in pay fixation under 6th Pay Commission (The root cause of anomaly was due to consideration only one increment for each of two increments one earned) – K.
