Taking into consideration DP&PW OM No. 38/37108-P&PW (A) dated-06.04.201,6, instructions were issued for processing of cases of pre-2006 pensioners by delinking of revised pension from qualiffing service of 33 years vide this office OM No. CPAO/IT& Tech/ Revision (Pre-2006)l2}l6-17lll dated-l2th April,2016 and subsequent OM No. CPAO/IT &TecW Revision (Pre-2006) l2Ol6L17ll9 dated,-27th April, 2016.

2. In this context, DP&PW has clarified the position vide their ID No.38/6/16-P&PW-(A) dated-l3.05.2016 that in accordance with CCS Pension Rules, pension is admissible if the retiring/ absorbed employee has completed a qualiffing service of l0 years at the time of retirement/ absorption. Therefore, all those pensioners who were drawing monthly pension after completion of 10 years qualifying service before 01.01.2006 are eligible for benefit in term of OM dated-01.09.2008 and 06.04.2016.

These orders are however, not applicable to those absorbee pensioners who had got 100% lump-sum in lieu of their monthly pension on absorption in PSUs etc. during 1973-7995 and are eligible for restoration of only 1/3’d of their pension in respect of such absorbee pensioners. However, the absorbee pensioners, who are receiving full monthly pension would continue to be covered by the OM dated-0l.09.2008 and06.04.2016 referred to above.

Further, all Pr. CCAs/CCAs/ CAs/AGs and Administrators of UTs were advised to verify, the list of PPO numbers for revision provided by CPAO in their PAOs login, from their records as to whether these PPO numbers are covered by DP&PW OM dated-06.04.2016. The other cases which were not available in the list provided by CPAO but covered under the OM dated-06.04 .2016 were also to be revised.

It is to ensure that cases of compulsory retirement pension and compassionate ailowance under Rule-40 & 4l o.f CCS @ension) Rules,1972, are not to be revised as they are not covered by the OM dated 06-04-2016
