Retirement age of Army, Navy and Air Force Staff
Retirement is an inevitable phase in the professional life of Air Force, Army, and Navy personnel. As the retirement age approaches, one is compelled to contemplate about future planning, savings, and more. For members of these armed forces, retirement age varies based on rank and years of service. The retirement package includes various benefits such as pensions, healthcare, and life insurance to ensure a comfortable life after serving the country. The transition from an active working life to a retired life can be both exciting and daunting, but with proper planning and execution, it can be a fulfilling and rewarding experience.

The retirement age of infantry officers at the rank of colonel should be 56-57 years. This decision will help so many of the officers. Infantry officer does not have a technical qualification,,,,, so if they retire at 54,it actually doing injustice as they are mostly posted to far flung areas.

Sir, Sailing in a sophisticated submarine loaded with ammunition is like a sailor tide with live bombs on his body and placed in a deserted vast deep ocean. In that they do courageous adventured operations like deep diving, firing practices, under water search operations etc. They don’t get fresh air to breath, fresh food to eat or water to bath for days. Till 5th CPC they were privileged good allowance, food, increased pension for retired submariners and other privileges. The 6th CPC has withdrawn the above privileges and equalized the pension with other sailors.
The health of ex-submariners adversely effect in old age and separate care has to be taken. So it is requested that a separate pension formula be adopted for this poor ex-submariners to care their health.

ll allowances shold be same because officres are sitting in the office and sleep in the night but jawan are real hero as they are always infront of the enemy or wheather and people of the country are safe only because of soldiers. Hence all allowances should be equal.

MSP is MSP. It should be equall for all categories in Army, Navy and Air Force irrespective of their ranks. In fact BBORs are facing more hardship then officers. Pl do justice with PBORs.

what is the meaning ofMSP????? once u are giving more amount to more amount to non combatant employees like MNS then how can be justifies its name?they are paying more MSP than a jawan because they are coming under officer category then change the name of that allowance and renamed it to officer allowance,,,,,,,its very ridiculous that any chief had commented anything regarding this MSP………

Length of service of Indian Army to be same as Navy & Air Force. Why only in Army for JCO/ OR so much criteria for retairment age. Please do same age for all Ranks. No service length , no rank bar only one age for all defence person.

MSP should be equal to all Personnel in Army Navy and Air Force. Cz in border area or in normal jawan are doing hard work. Officer also doing but in office room. In ground jawan has main roll in Defence.

You are not bother about MSP of Officers and Mns. Why you are reluctant to say u need MSP equivalent to officers, remember JCOs are also commissioned Officers. Fact is that afraid of speaking against artificial Gods of Army

Army Navy Air Force me maximum period of service should be only 20 years. Thereafter send all of them out. So that forces will remain young, Old people do not work, they only tell stories of their past. maine ye ukhada maine wo ukhada. Ukhada kuchh nahi sirf malish giri ki hai apne oopar wale ki. No 33/60 formula no extention of service. Only solution is show them exit gate on completion of 20 years. Let young people get employment.
ms gudikeri says
retirement age in Army for JCO be extended up to 60 or 33 years of service for all Nb Sub, Sub and Sub Maj since there is no scope for re settlement of jcos in civil jobs before 33 years of service
ms gudikeri says
military service pay for jco in the army is merged with OR ranks is not fair it should be above as per Sepoy and Sub Major difference category and should be minimum for OR 5200/- and JCO Rs 10500/- Normal Sepoy and 30 years SUB MAJ BOTH are getting same MS Pay How ? please reconcile this issue begins with 6th pay commission but not still pending
Ramachandran KK says
Considering the pay matrix and the service limit of military personnel the retirement benefits will be fall far-behind for PBORs and officer below col rank. The policy say equal pay for equal work. But I could not find the compensation for the jawaans who work about 18 hrs a day. they getup at 04.00 h in the morning and goes to sleep at go bed at 20.00 h in the night. In addition thrice in a week they will be detailed for night duties. There must be a reconsideration of pay scales for the PBORs to Cols and compensation in the pay scale apart from military pay. In actual condition they perform the duties double that of their civilian countrpart and their devotion to duty is also double. It is the duty of the top politicians consider their case sympathetically without considering the recommendation of the civilian staff in side the south and north block because they know nothing about the military persons on duty.
Ajay kumar says
Retirement age of civilians should be 60 years of age or 33 years of service it will ceates numbers of govt job in govt sect because max percent of emp across 33 yers of service and it is sufficient service for family setup nd self satisfication

Rehan Ahmed says
All types of Allowences will be equal for officers &Pbors because PBORs faced more hardship than officers .officers work in AC offices and take all the facilities, amenities and sahayaks for their ease and comfort whereas PBORs have nothing all these and MSP should also be equal for all ranks.
Ajay says
Nothing magical is going to happen for JCOs/OR as far as 7th CPC is concerned since our bosses are fighting for increase in their own pay. Therefore lower rank, please be prepared to listen a lolipop announcement in 7th CPC with no profit and comparatevely lesser pay than your gods in the army.
kartik jena says
Sir,,
The officer in armed forces are highly paid than their actual performances and enjoy on the cost of jawans. In today’s environment they are less competent in their respective field except officers in aviation duty field as they are promoted to next higher rank on basis of accident free flying hours.
deepak singh says
All types of allces in army irrespective of rank/status should be equal. PBOR faces more hardship than officers. Also MSP should also be equal. As regards to vth and 6the CPC there is a big difference in basic pay/pay band of officers compare to PBOR. It should be rationalised. For example if a officer getting Rs 50000/- pay band and a JCO Rs 13000/- pay band as per 6th cpc’ if you multiply by 3 then officer pay will Rs 150000 and for JCO Rs 39000/- which resulting in big difference. Declaration of DA should also be accordingly. For example govt declares DA 6%, then DA for officers should be 4% and for PBOR 6%. Request govt to look into the matter and initiate as deem fit. Officers works in ac offices with all facilities, amenities and sahayaks, whereas JCOs/OR have nothing.
Rajesh says
MSP Should be equal for all military personnel.No rank is three times military than a Javan.However a Javan is more military than any Officer rank.
Rakeah says

Sepoy have need a stamina for ops and work.so no need at any rate increase service
Devendra Singh says
The best way to settle problems of defence persons ensure good and matching second career for them. This is not so difficult by this army men will get full length of service and nation will get disciplined workforce for longer period. .
pr mohapatra says
Retirement age of all three wings of defence personnel ie army, navy and air force should be uniform. present age of retirement of navy and air force pers below offr rank is 57 , whereas present age of retirement of army pers is 54 years (sub maj). So 3 yrs of service in each rank of army pers should be increased in 7th pay commission.
virbhansingh says
Retirement age is 33 years good move by modi govt
jns says
Retirement age should be reduced in defence services. New youngsters should be given chances as people join at very early age in defence
Rahul says
VR to be Simple so that talented Personal can do much better for the Country after VR.
In present time Military Life is good but not up to the expected Level. Pay & Facilities for Offer is much higher than Jawan’s. Many talented & Capable Jawan’s can do much better outside but due to Policy Paralyzed they suffer and do nothing special in his Life…
According to my view VR should be like this…
1. After Completion of 10 Yrs….VR….no any benefits….
2. After Completion of 15 Yrs…VR….eligible for Pension up to 30%….
3. After Completion of 20 Yrs…VR…..eligible for Pension up to 50%…Or what is given at Present……
Thanks…

Further to my comments,
The case to review the retirement age of Sub Majs has also been recommended by DOs of than Maj Gen but no fruitful out come .
Please look into the matter again.
Regards
Hony Lt Ranjan says
Dear Sir,
It has been noticed as well as experienced by me that I have been retired on 44Yrs from Army. The retirement age for Sub Maj is 54 yrs of age or 34 yrs of service or 4yrs tenure which ever is earlier in Army, due to which max Sub Maj of Indian Army are retiring at the age of 40 to 48 Yrs where as in Air Force & Navy retirement age is 57 Yrs. There is harassing anomaly in these Three Force Of our Country, which is to be reviewed in the interest of State as Indian Army is loosing its creamy/trainned Sub Majs. Although while in Service I have represented this anomaly through proper channel to the competent authority i.e. AHQ Mo D, but I got simple reply from E-in-C’s Branch that the case has been analysis and no change in existing policy felt necessary therefore existing status quo be maintained duly signed by then Lt Col Manish without forwarding my representation to competent authority in 2011, no one had taken seriously on this issue so that Sub Maj can serve their nation till the age of 57/60yrs as in the case of Indian Air Force and Navy.
May I once again request you to go to the depth i.e. grass root study of service as well as loosing experts form forces.
Thank you,
With Regards,
DP PANDEY says
if air forece PBOR can do service maximum length of service any rank

sundararajan p says
the hole civil employees are enjoy upto their 58/60 years service benifits…whereas the soldiers (specially pbor)sent back to home @ the age of 33 to 38 years, is it justice? after retirement they are unable to face the financial crisis.and the the govt is anounced 10% re-employment but they give only age relaxation to compatit the exams, is it not possible to compatition with new gen people & new syllabus. unable to came up in merit list of entrolement, so my humble request is that, after tenure of service give professionel training and employ in suitable civil job, those are below 45 years old.do not give cr & do not kick back to home..plz remember their service for the nation ..
Bubai Sarkar says
to scope suitable job after retirement of army persons.
DL NARAYANA says
The retirement age should be uniform for the services as well as for civilian GOI employees. It is high time this annomali is corrected. It is cruel for the Service officers/ ORs to retire so early and lead a difficult retired life. Present day wars are fought on intellectual plane rather than on physical strength.
mkc says
There is deficiency of officers except infantry,flying branches. Ground duties officers job can be achieved by pbors as they are well qualified nd they are actually runs the system by their blood nd sweats. So govt can set up a committee nd have study this suggestion. All ground duty officers r a waste of govt money nd creating unnecessary putting hurdles in the accomplishment of tasks where already sops are existing. They misuse the manpower nd service hours for their personal requirement. No need to increase retirement age it must be reduced so that we have gud nd young commanders.
ANONYMOUS says
In every pay commission, the gap between the pay structure of officer and that of PBOR is widening. Moreover, they have mostly started travelling by Air on leave , Temporary duty or on Postings.. Therefore the officers are unaware of hardship faced by PBOR who travel by trains where the General Quota is shrinking day by day and Defense Personnel are not being allowed to travel by newly introduced Premium Trains.
I think everyone will agree me that the sports facilities like Golf, Tennis, Squash, Swimming Pools are reserved for officers and their children. After 60 years of independence, I am not convinced how children and wife of an officer and a PBOR is different . Why children of PBOR not allowed to utilise the facilities for which even PBORs pay taxes to the Govt. If anywhere it is allowed for PBORs, they allot ridiculous timings to them.
The family of a PBOR is a disturbed lot. Children move from one state to another for their studies along with their father. In the due course, their studies get disturbed as children have to start afresh at every new place due to difference in the pace of syllabus covered. They also require time to get accustomed to the accent of teachers at new school. Thereby when a child finishes schooling, he/she is at disadvantageous comparing to the other students. Therefore, it is suggested that all Govt Colleges must have quotas for wards of Defense personnel.
This list of problems are as long as this Universe. To cut short, there is need to give sufficient tangible and intangible benefits to PBORs to lead a peaceful life after tougher service life.
M Pandey says
At this site when people are taking about ” no volantary retirement is to be given that is being published” whereas when I am taking about “retirement without pension at any time ” that is being deleted. It shows that your site is run by ex-officers for the benifites officers not for soldier like all other platforms in india.
M Pandey says
There should be valuntary retirement scheme (without pension) at any time in the service. Defence Officers want to enjoy service more and more in their ac office and for taking banifites they use to call themself “poor soldier”. whereas ground reality is this maximum soldier are so fedup with the egostic behavior and personal work of defence officers that they do not want to continue (application with record office can be checked).
Defence authories make policies for their own benefits and it is purily injustice that a soldier can leave the service only after clearing the exam equivelant to IAS.
Manoj Yadav says
There is no requirement of incress duration of pesionable service of army because there is to harashment given by officer to PBOR. They can’t provide leave properly and timely and use PBOR like a civil servent and ladies of officers are interfearing in army and local comanders are makeing there own rules and one more thing we also want to spent our one part of life with our famly, we also want to feel like a man. we just not want spend our life like Ajad desh ke gulam sipahi.
Rama Shankar Singh says
PBOR is being enrolled in Armed Forces on a contract service. Many of them released from service at very early age and face a lot of difficulties for settlement.. However officers Permanently commissioned in Armed Forces can serve upto 56/58/62 years. Further he can serve for 2-4 years post retirement on re-joining. So it is more essential to provide job security to PBOR on priority.
ACHUTHAN T says
If the Army pers are compled for retirement before 60 years of their age they should give suitable job in civil authorities.
pirzada says
The retirement age of army pers and civil centre Govt. servants should be uniform. Also the promotion criteria in civil and Army should be same. See the Civil central Govt def. per e.g LDC is promoted till AO but in Army for PBORs Sub Maj is the last Rank however his age mey be less than 50 at the time of retirment. such things should be reftified and uniform rule should be formed
sunil kumar says
There is a huge gap in the payments of officers and the jawans. There should not be any discrimination. It is strange that the Military service pay which is paid to every soldier on the basis of potential threats of life….is also biased,.. 6000 per month for officers and 2000 per months for jawans. .commission should rethink on this criteria and an uniformity should be established on this issue.because every life has got equal importance.

SK PILLAI says
we are talking about equality, cruelty etc meted out on armed forces personnel in comparing age of retirement of civilian employees.but we conveniently forget the service condition of subedar major of the indian army who have to step out of service once attain a maximum of four years of service in that rank irrespective to the length of service, age,educational qualification,medical fitness and other merits.
i got enrolment in army direct as naib subedar being technically qualified, and had to leave service in the rank of subedar major with only 20 years and 8 months of service at the age of 42 years on account of the crude rule of the 4 years of maximum allowable service for subedar major.at the time of retirement my medical catagory was ‘AYE’ and there was no disciplinary cases against me.
leave aside extension of service or rehabilitation in civil life, the pension granted was also drastically reduced stating that i have not rendered full length of service.it can be seen that i am not earning the full pension of even naib subedar , the rank at which i started the service.one becomes subedar major early either on account of outstanding performance or due to higher educational level. is it a crime.
i have already projected the issue to the chief of army staff, ministry of defence, prime minister of india and the honorable president of india(supreme commander of the armed forces)..but nobody paid any attention to look into the gross injustice done over to the subedar majors of the indian army who had to retire early from service based on the cruel condition.

Sir, Retirement age should be uniform with Air/Navy. Either service clauses should to be removed. At very young age we are retired without ful fill our family requirement. When time to come to look our children education we forcely retired. After retirement neithere are very few people got job. We hope BP Government will create new history for Portsmouth.

There is only for officers to increasement of pay commission and no beneficial or improvements for pbor. Do officers do extra brainy job for paying high or are they have rocket minded? There is always propaganda in pay commission.
in this pay commission there must be suitable difference between Officers and PBOR bcz its so difference and it causes on PBOR moral down…

Sir, I would like to say that the retirement of JCOs/OR should be AS PER AGE CRITERIA like Air Force. So that persons serving the motherland will not search a second job after retirement to maintain his family.

The retirement age should be uniform for the services as well as for civilian GOI employees. It is high time this annomali is corrected. It is cruel for the Service officers/ ORs to retire so early and lead a difficult retired life..
If government of India is genuinely interested in soldier’s welfare it must enhance the retirement age of Army officers at least by two years without any delay. We must reward a soldier and not punish him for wearing uniform
yashvender singh says
Why should a poor soldier suffer,Is this the welfare to soldiers that we are talking about. It is high time that the government either lets a soldier serve respectfully till 60 years or suffer acute shortage of officers

Physical stamina is still playing crucial roll in war or operation. Hence it will affect of trg, war and operation. No need to increase.

I am aware that most of the educated personnel are taking voluntary retirement and engaging themselves in some Good position’s. That too in banks and govt job they are enjoying their last pay as their new salary. I also have the opinion that govt should not allow them to take VR merely putting service to enjoy ex-service status. Only on extreme family or medical ground are to be the criteria for VR.
