Office Memorandum

Subject: Grant of family pension to the dependent family members of a Government Servant/Pensioner reported missing – Reg.

The undersigned is to invite a reference to this Department’s earlier O.M. No.1/17/86-P&PW dt. 29th August, 1986 and the subsequent clarifications issued vide O.M. No.1/17/86-P&PW(E) dt. 18th February, 1993, O.M. No.1/17/86-P&PW(C) dt. 25th January, 1991 and O.M. No.1/28/04-P&PW(E) dt. 31st March, 2009, detailing therein instructions concerning grant of family pension to the eligible family members of the Government servants/Pensioners who have suddenly disappeared and whose whereabouts are not known, after a period of one year, or Government servants who have been kidnapped by insurgents/ terrorists, after a period of six months, reckoned from the date of registration of the FIR with the Police Authorities.

2. The staff side of the National Council (JCM) have been raising for quite sometime the issue concerning withdrawal of the mandatory condition of one year prescribed in regard to sanction of family pension to the eligible family members of the pensioners who are reported missing while on prigimage, tour, etc., and sanction the family pension to the eligible family members within a period of two months from the date of filling of the FIR with the police. This demand of the staff side is based on the premise that this kind of stipulation in the rules has been causing a great deal of hardship to the families of such missing pensioners.

3.The matter has been considered in this Department in consultation with Ministry of Finance (Department of Expenditure). It has been observed from the earlier instructions issued in this regard by this Department that the same do not make any distinction between the Government servant and the pensioners but cover both of them for the purpose of grant of family pension. It has accordingly been decided that the family pension/retirement or death gratuity to the eligible family members of a Government servant/Pensioner reported missing and whose whereabouts are not known, may be sanctioned after a period of six months from the date of registration of an FIR with the Police. This, however, would be subject to the instructions regarding grant/disbursal of retirement or death gratuity, etc., as contained in this Department’s O.M. referred to above.

4.This issues with the concurrence of the Ministry of Finance, Department of Expenditure vide their U.O. No.367/EV/2010 dated 15.06.2010.

5.These orders, in so far as their applicability relates to the employees of the Indian Audit and Accounts Department, are being issued in consultation with the Comptroller and Audit General of India, vide their U.O.No. 43-Audit(Rules)/28-2009 dt. 21.06.2010.

DA Calculation based on AICPIN of May 2010

DA Calculation based on AICPIN of May 2010

The expected All India Consumer Price Index number (AICPIN) for Industrial Workers Base 2001=100 for the month of May 2010 has been released by Statistical Department, Labour.

The AICPIN for the month of May 2010 is 172.

Based on AICPIN index, here we calculated DA percentage for 1st July 2010.

Month All India Index % of increase
Nov-08 148 21.44
Dec-08 147 22.38
Jan-09 148 23.39
Feb-09 148 24.32
Mar-09 148 25.12
Apr-09 150 25.98
May-09 151 26.84
Jun-09 153 27.78
Jul-09 160 29
Aug-09 162 30.23
Sep-09 163 31.45
Oct-09 165 32.67
Nov-09 168 34.11
Dec-09 169 35.7
Jan-10 172 37.43
Feb-10 170 39.01
Mar-10 170 40.59
Apr-10 170 42.03
May-10 172 43.54
Jun-10 ? ?

As per above data, we got 35% dearness allowance for last time based on % of increase in AICPIN.

If the index value remains 172 in June 2010, then % of increase value is 44.91,

=June 10 % of Increase index value minus Jan 10 % of Increase index value

=44.91 (-) 35.7

=9.21

How to calculate % of increase ?

 

Here is the simple formula for calculate increase percentage for AICPIN

 

=> DA = (Average of AICPIN for the past 12 months – 115.76)*100/115.76

If the index remains 172 in June 10, there will be an increase of 9%

Last dearness allowance is 35% + 9% during this year.

So there is a chances to get 44% Dearness allowance from 1st July 2010 onwards

Date
From which Payable		 Rate (%) Increase (%)
1st Jan 2006 0 0
1st Jul 2006 2 2
1st Jan 2007 6 4
1st Jul 2007 9 3
1st Jan 2008 12 3
1st Jul 2008 16 4
1st Jan 2009 22 6
1st Jul 2009 27 5
1st Jan 2010 35 8
1st Jul 2010 ? ?

However we have to wait for the next month index to get clear idea for DA percentage.
