Retirement Benefits Calculator for CG Employees – Commutation Factor Value of Pension
[Disclaimer: Please note that the calculator’s results are intended for informational purposes only and should be considered as approximate. This free online tool is provided solely for educational and informative use.]The Retirement Benefits Calculator for CG (Central Government) Employees is an online tool that helps individuals calculate the value of their pension, including the Commutation Factor. The Commutation Factor is a multiplier that determines the lump sum payment that a retiree can receive in exchange for giving up a part of their monthly pension. This calculation is essential for CG employees who are planning for their retirement and want to ensure that they have adequate financial security in their post-retirement years. By inputting various factors such as years of service, basic pay, and date of retirement, the Retirement Benefits Calculator can provide an accurate estimate of the pension amount that an individual can expect to receive.
What is the commutation Value of the Pension calculation formula?
Government employees who have retired now have the option to sell a portion of their pension and receive a lump sum payment known as ‘Commutation.’ Despite the introduction of the 7th pay commission, there has been no alteration in the computation of pension commutation.
When it comes to calculating the commuted value of pension, there is a specific formula that is used. This formula takes into account multiple factors, including the commutation factor and the number of months in a year. To arrive at the commuted value of pension (CVP), the formula is as follows: CVP = 40 % x Commutation factor* x 12. This equation is commonly used by pension providers and financial advisors to help individuals plan for their financial futures and understand the value of their pension benefits.
* The commutation factor will be with reference to age next birthday on the date on which commutation becomes absolute as per the New Table annexed to the CCS (Commutation of Pension) Rules, 1981.

The Commutation Factor Value of Pension Calculator, based on the 7th Central Pay Commission’s Commutation Table, is an essential tool for retired government employees or those who are about to retire. This calculator helps to compute the amount of lump sum payment that can be received by the employee in exchange for a part of their pension at the time of retirement.

This calculator can be used by employees to plan their finances and make informed decisions about their retirement.

Commutation is not easy money for Government employees, not a gift also..!
The Calculation of Pension Commutation as per the Pension Rules for existing and retired CG employees. This is a simple tool to find the value of pension, reduced pension after commutation, and the commutation amount as per your inputs. The pension and commutation calculation is not applicable for premature retirement or Voluntary retirement employees.
Commutation Calculation Formula with Example as per Pension Rule: A Central Government servant has an option to commute a portion of pension, not exceeding 40% of it, into a lump sum payment. No medical examination is required if the option is exercised within one year of retirement. If the option is exercised after the expiry of one year, he/she will have to undergo a medical examination by the specified competent authority.
Pension Commutation Factor Calculation and Benefits: Lump-sum payable is calculated with reference to the Commutation Table. The monthly pension will stand reduced by the portion commuted and the commuted portion will be restored on the expiry of 15 years from the date of receipt of the commuted value of the pension. Dearness Relief, however, will continue to be calculated on the basis of the original pension (i.e. without reduction of commuted portion).
7th CPC New Table for Commutation of Pension
Retirement Benefits for Central Government Employees
Pension – Minimum and Maximum Pension: After the implementation of the 7th pay commission, the minimum pension is Rs. 9000 per month and the maximum amount of pension is 125000 per month.
Commutation of Pension: There are no specific 7th pay commission recommendations on this subject. No change in the formula for calculating the commutation of the pension amount.
Retirement Gratuity & Death Gratuity: Retirement gratuity is eligible for the retiring employees from Government service with a minimum of five years of regular service. The formula for the retirement gratuity calculation is 1/4th of a month’s Basic Pay plus Dearness Allowance drawn on the date of retirement for each completed six monthly periods of qualifying service. There is no minimum limit for the amount of gratuity. The retirement gratuity payable for qualifying service of 33 years or more is 16 times the Basic Pay plus DA, subject to a maximum of Rs. 20 lakhs.
The superannuation age in Central Govt Services is now 60. If an employee gets voluntary retirement, the completed year of age will be taken into account of the Commutation calculation.
What is the Commutation Factor for normal retirement?
Currently, the normal retirement age for employees in Central Govt Services is 60 years old. When calculating commutation, the age factor used is 8.194, which takes into account various factors such as life expectancy and interest rates. This age factor helps determine the lump sum payment an individual may receive upon retirement, providing financial security for their future.

For bank employees, there is a helpful commutation factor table available to streamline this process. It’s also important to note the applicable rate of interest on the commutation of the pension.

Anil says
My father’s basic salary was 91400
He commuted 40% of his pension and reduced pension is 27,420.
He has been paid 17,97,435 as commuted pension,
Want to understand how this value of 17,97,435 has been calculated
H V Nehe says
Pension=91400/2=45700/-
Pension Commutation= 0.4*45700*8.194*12=1797435/-
Pension commutation Formula = 40% of Pension Basic X Commutation Factor X 12
Note: Commutation Factor Chart is available on net.
M.K.Kumar says
Why should we search net, we can see above in this site…
But the commutation factors will be charged with reference to age of next birthday as in the table as per the CCS(Commutation Pension) Rules, 1981. Any good effort to search net. Thanks.
M.K.KUMAR says
In my opinion the above commutation calculator should have next age birth date (age factor) column. Also please check up it is not now.
