OROP Pension Calculation – Rounding of Qualifying Service
Rounding of Qualifying Service : While calculating the length of qualifying service for the pensionary benefits, a fraction of a year equal to 3 months and above but less than 9 months is treated as one half (1/2) year period, and nine months or more but less than a year is treated as a completed one year for determining the amount of pension w.e.f. 28/06/1983.
Prior to 28/06/1983, the broken period of service of 180 days or more is to be treated as 1⁄2 years w.e.f. 22/04/1960.
In view of above, if qualifying service has been mentioned as 17 years 10 months in PPO/Corr PPO, it should be rounded upto 18 years for post 28.06.1983 retirees, 17.5 years for pre-28.6.1983 but post 22.04.1960 and 17 years for pre-22.04.1960 retirees.
The provisions of this circular shall be applicable to all Pre-01.07.2014 pensioners/family pensioners and their pension/family pension shall be stepped up with reference to rank, group and qualifying service in which they were pensioned.
Note: -a) The officers retired on or after 1.1.1996 in the rank of Major and who have completed 21 years of service have been allowed the pay of Lt.Col. Accordingly, pension of these officers have been revised by issue of Corr. PPOs.
It is therefore, requested to revise the pension of post-96 Army Officer with rank Major and its equivalent in the Air Force and Navy who have completed 21 years.
b) In case of pre-1.1.2006 retirees, rank for pension and rank last held may be different. While revising the Pension/Family Pension under these orders, rank for pension, which is shown in the PPOs, may be considered for pre 1-1-2006 retires.
c) A JCOs/ORs pensioner, who had retired with a particular rank and granted ACP-I will be eligible for revision of pension of next higher rank;
if ACP-II has been granted, he will be eligible for revision of pension of next higher rank of ACP-I; and
if ACP-III has been granted, he will be eligible for revision of pension of next higher rank of ACP-II w.e.f. 01.07.2014.
For example- a Sepoy granted ACP-I will be eligible for revision of pension of Naik rank, sepoy granted ACP-II will be eligible for revision of pension of Havildar rank and sepoy granted ACP-III will be eligible for revision of pension of Naib Subedar rank.
Full pension of PSU absorbees, who had opted for 100% commutation of pension, shall be revised by concerned PSAs under these orders with reference to revised pension of the rank determined for regular category of pensioners.
However, there shall be no change in restored amount of pension already notified by respective PSAs in their cases.

Sir I have get ACP Nb Sub on 01 Aug 2016. I eligible for JCO pension?
As per the OROP , A Sep granted ACP -I is granted pension of Naik, A sepoy granted ACP II, is granted pension of Hav, A sepoy granted ACP-III is granted pension of Nb/Sub
But a Sub granted Honorary rank of Sub Major is not being given pension of Sub Major. Is it Justice.
However, a Sub/Sub Major granted Hony Lt/ Capt is granted pension of Officer rank.
Such Subedars were eligible for Hony rank, but as the vacancies were not available in the corps ratio, they were not granted Hony Lt/Capt, but were granted Hony Sub Major.
So why such Hony Sub Major and equal rank in Navy and Air Force cannot be granted pension of SubMajor or equal rank in Navy and Air Force. Please note the point and forward it to the committee.
Sir, I have retired as a Subedar major on 31 Mar 2014 after completion of 34 years of service and promoted as hony Lt on 15 Aug 2014 after retirement. In OROP can I get pension of Hony Lt
