OFFICE MEMORANDUM

Subject :– Extension of period for submission of Life Certificate by Central Government pensioners till February 28, 2021.

The undersigned is directed to refer to this Department’s O.M. No. 18/1/2020-P&PW(C)-6681 dated 11th September, 2020 regarding the extension of timeline for submission of Life Certificate by Central Government pensioners from 1st November, 2020 onward, till 31st December 2020.

2. This Department has been in receipt of numerous petitions from various Pensioners’ Associations as well as individuals requesting a further extension in the date for submitting Life Certificate, in view of the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic and the vulnerability of elderly population to Corona Virus. After consultation with the office of Controller General of Accounts, it has now been decided to further extend the existing timeline for submission of Life Certificate. This year, all Central Government pensioners may submit Life Certificate from 1st November, 2020 onward, till February 28, 2021. During this extended period, the pension will be continued to be paid by the Pension Disbursing Authorities (PDAs) uninterrupted.

3. The above measures are expected to avoid rush at branches, stagger the submission of the LCs by the elderly population while maintaining social distancing, and to that extent, prevent the spread of Corona virus. PDAs shall also ensure proper arrangements and social distancing measures at the branches and prevent overcrowding.

4. All Pension Disbursing Authorities are requested to take note of this OM for compliance and give wide publicity to the same amongst pensioners.

This issues with the approval of the competent authority.

Kind reference is invited towards para 5 of this office memo of even number dated 26.12.2019 whereby it was mentioned that “where junior Inspectors of Post who have completed qualifying/eligibility service, are considered eligible for appearing in PS Gr ‘B’ LDCE, their senior should also be allowed to appear in the PS Gr ‘B’ LDCE provided they are not short of the requisite qualifying/eligibility service by more than half of such qualifying/eligibility service or two years whichever is less, and have completed Probation period for promotion to the next higher grade along with their juniors, who have already completed such qualifying/eligibility service”.

2. It was inter-alia mentioned in para 4 that seniority of IP cadre are initially fixed at Circle level and then the seniority of IP is prepared/ fixed/ categorized/ updated at centralized (all India) level in the Directorate. As far as IP who are to appear in LDCE 2018 & 2019 are concerned, seniority at Circle level is now required to be taken for the above purpose.

Also Read : Postponement of LDCE for promotion to the cadre of P.S. Group ‘B’

3. Now, Some Circles have sought clarification whether Inspectors of Posts of a particular Circle, who are short of eligibility service for appearing in PS Group ‘IT LDCE, can be allowed to appear in the PS Group ‘B’ LDCE in terms of DoP Memo No. 9-36/2019-SPG-II dated 26.12.2019 on the grounds that an Inspector of Posts who is junior to them owing to his transfer to that Circle under Rule-38 (who is otherwise senior to them in the All India Seniority List) has completed the eligibility / qualifying service for appearing in PS Group `B’ LDCE

4. The para 4 of DoP memo no. 9-36/2019-SPG-II dated 26.12.2019 as mentioned in para 2 supra has been re-visited and examined in view of existing provisions on the subject matter and it is clarified that in such cases where old and new unit form part of a wider unit for the purpose of promotion to a higher cadre, the transferee under Rule-38 (whether by mutual exchange or otherwise) will retain his original seniority in the gradation list of the wider unit. In the instant case of Inspector of Posts, the old and new unit are Circles while wider unit is All India. Therefore in such cases, the senior IP’s of such Circle cannot claim the benefit of appearing in the PS Group ‘B’ LDCE exam with reference to such eligible junior (transferee under Rule-38).

5. These clarifications are issued with reference to eligibility of Inspector Posts/ASPOs for appearing in LDCE for promotion to Postal Service Group B only

6. This issues with the approval of the Competent Authority.

CIR No.: PFRDA/2020/49/SUP-CRA/20

Date: November 12, 2020

To
AD Stake Holders under Govt. Sector NPS
(Central Govt. /State Govt. /Central Autonomous Bodies/State Autonomous Bodies)

Subject: Option for Govt. employees to on-board NPS through eNPS (Stake Holder Feedback)

e-NPS is the online NPS on boarding portal hosted by the Central Record Keeping Agency (CRA) wherein a Subscriber can register and contribute online into NPS. Through eNPS, a Subscriber can register under NPS, generate a Permanent Retirement Account Number (PRAN) under All Citizens of India and Corporate Sectors_ Further, the Subscribers who have already been registered under NPS across sectors with active PRAN can make contributions through eNPS as well as activate their Tier II account. The prospective NPS Subscribers under private sector can register in e-NPS either through ‘Aadhaar Offline e-KYC’ or through ‘PAN & Bank Account’.

2. At present, the Government sector Subscribers are registered under NPS either through submission of physical form to CRAs or through online processes viz. OPGIVI (Online PRAN Generation Module ) adopted by the Nodal Offices of Govt. Now, PFRDA is exploring the possibility to enable e-NPS platform as an additional option to Government Sector employees to facilitate their online onboarding under NPS. Accordingly, the employees of Government Sector will have option to register under NPS through e-NPS. Further, an existing Subscriber of other sectors. on entering into the Government sector, shall have an option to shift to Government sector through e-NPS.

3. The proposed methodology is placed at Annexure I.

4. The proposed mode of e-NPS based registration of Govt Sector employees bring the following benefits to the stakeholders:

i. Ease of on boarding for employees and online verification/authorization of employee NPS information by nodal officers.

ii. Paperless process of enrollment with e-Sign/OTP.

iii. Easing the work of Nodal officers from manual process of Acct opening and freeing them from handling papers and associated challenges of dispatching the physical forms to CRA.

iv. Optimizing the cost of Acct opening by end to end digitization.

v. Expediting the account opening process compared to existing modes of account opening methods made available to the Government sector.

vi. Timely PRAN generation and hence timely deposit of NPS contribution which would lead to higher investment benefits.

vii. Since the employees fill the data in e-NPS portal themselves while on-boarding, data entry error may come down and consequently the decline in rejection of forms.

viii. Currently, CRA-FC services are also utilized by SG/CG for data entry /digitization which may be prone to data entry error which results in return/re-submission of forms.

ix. The logistical cost associated with submitting physical forms by subscribers to nodal officers, by nodal officers to CRA-FC and resubmitting the return forms will be avoided.

x. Covid pandemic induced immobility leading to piling up of CSRF at Govt. offices can be overcome.

xi. Few State Govt. depts. are advising their new employees to open acct under UoS and carry out Inter Sector Shifting (ISS) thereafter which increases the cost of account opening and turn around time.

xii. By enabling eNPS onboarding for Govt employees, ISS can also be carried out seamlessly.

5. In view of the above, PFRDA invites comments/suggestions/feedback from all the Government nodal offices on this proposal (Option for Govt employees to join NPS through e NPS). as per the format attached as Annexure II.

6. The comments can be e-mailed to [email protected] or through a letter before 15th December 2020.
