(a) whether it is a fact that there is a growing demand for reintroduction of pension schemes for the general employees;
(b) the response of the Central Government as more number of State Governments are going for the pension schemes for their employees; and
(c) the assessment of Government on closure of pension w.e.f. 2004 for its employees?
ANSWER MINISTER OF STATE IN THE MINISTRY OF PERSONNEL, PUBLIC GRIEVANCES AND PENSIONS AND MINISTER OF STATE IN THE PRIME MINISTER’S OFFICE (DR. JITENDRA SINGH)
(a) to (c): A Statement is laid on the Table of the House.
STATEMENT REFFERED TO IN REPLY OF RAJYA SABHA STARRED QUESTION NO. 177 (12TH POSITION) FOR ANSWER ON 16.03.2023 BY SHRI ANIL DESAI ON REPRESENTATION OF REINTRODUCTION OF OLD PENSION SCHEME
(a) to (c): Representations have been received from time to time offering inputs on different aspects of National Pension System.
National Pension System (NPS) was introduced for Central Government employees by a Notification of Ministry of Finance (Department of Economic Affairs) dated 22/12/2003. NPS is mandatory for all new recruits to the Central Government service from 01/01/2004 (except the armed forces). Most of the State Governments adopted NPS for their employees.
Consequent to introduction of NPS w.e.f. 01.01.2004, the Central Civil Services (Pension) Rules, 1972 were amended and the benefits of old pension scheme under these rules are not applicable to Central Government employees appointed after 31.12.2003.
Government of India, after the assessment has taken many steps for streamlining of NPS for Central Government employees and to protect the interest of the subscribers. These include enhancement of Government’s contribution from the earlier 10% of Pay plus DA to 14% of Pay plus DA, freedom of choice of selection of Pension Funds and pattern of investment to subscribers, payment of compensation for non-deposit or delayed deposit of NPS contributions for any period during 2004-2012, tax exemption under Section 80C of the Income Tax Act, 1961 and increase in tax exemption limit for lump sum withdrawal on exit from earlier 40% to 60% of the amount due, making the entire withdrawal exempt from income tax.
Sub:- Payment of Pension/Family Pension in respect of NPS subscribers as per Department of Pension and Pensioners’ Welfare Notification dated 30th March 2021 – reg.
Attention is invited to Department of Pension and Pensioner’s Welfare (DoP&PW) Gazette Notification dated 30th March, 2021 wherein the Central Civil Services (Implementation of National Pension System) Rules, 2021 came into force. The payment of pension/family pension to the pensioners/family pensioners covered under the National Pension system has been regularized through this notification. Therefore, the payment of pension in these cases will be made through the concerned CPPCs of Authorized Banks as OPS. The following categories have been created to process these pension cases:-
W- Ordinary Family Pension X- Invalid Pension Y- Extraordinary Pension Z- Extraordinary Family Pension
Moreover, in addition to creation of these categories CPAO has upgraded its system and incorporated a field of PRAN for NPS cases. The procedure for processing of these cases in CPAO is at final stage for roll out.
All the CPPCs of Authorized Banks are hereby directed to comply with the following instructions-
1. Include the above mentioned categories of NPS in their system/software. 2. Include a field of ‘PRAN’ in their system/software. 3. Comply with the Gazette Notification dated 30th March 2021
In case of any technical advice, Sh. Dhiraj Kumar (Scientific Officer- SB, CPAO) at dhiraj.kumar89[at]nic.in may be contacted.
Further, all the CPPCs of Authorized Banks are requested to intimate this office at the earliest, once these changes are implemented.
This issues with the approval of the Chief Controller (Pensions).
