Sir,
I am directed to convey the approval of the Government of India to revise

non-faculty pensioners /family pensioners of CFTIs, as per Department of

of revision of pension/family pension:
As per 2nd formulation (recommended by 7th CPC), vide
para -4.1 of OM dated 04.03.2016, as follows:
For existing pensioners, who have retired before 01.01.2016 the revised
pension/family pension with effect from 01.01.2016 shall be determined by
multiplying the existing pension/family pension, as had been fixed at the
time of implementation of 6th CPC recommendations, by 2.57. The amount of
revised pension/family pension so arrived at shall be rounded off to next
higher rupee.
OR
As per 1st formulation (recommended by 7th CPC), vide
para-4 of OM dated 12.05.2017, as follows;
The pension/family pension w.e.f. 01.01.2016 may be revised by notionally
fixing the pay of pensioners in the pay matrix recommended by the 7th CPC
in the level corresponding to the pay in the pay scale/pay band and grade
pay at which pensioners retired/died. This will be done by notional pay
fixation under each intervening Pay Commission based on the formula for
revision of pay. While fixing pay on notional basis, the pay fixation
formulae approved by the Government and other relevant instructions on the subject in force at the relevant time shall be strictly followed.
Then:
- 50% of the notional pay as on 01.01.2016 shall be the revised pension and 30% of this notional pay shall be the revised family pension w.e.f. 01.01.2016; and
- for family pensioners who were entitled to family pension at enhanced rate, the revised family pension shall be 50% of the notional pay as on 01.01.2016. This shall be payable till the period up to which family pension at enhanced rate is admissible as per rules. The amount of revised pension/family pension so arrived at shall be rounded off to next higher rupee.
All CFTIs may, accordingly, workout pension on the lines of concordance
tables prepared by the DoP&PW vide OM dated 06.07.2017 as amended from
time to time.
3. The DoP&PW’s OM dated 12.05.2017 vide para-5, further maintains that
higher of the two formulations i.e. the pension/family pension already
revised in accordance with the OM dated 04.08.2016 or the revised
pension/family pension as worked out in accordance with para 4 of OM dated
12.05.2017, shall be granted to pre-01.01.2016 pensioners as revised
pension/family pension w.e.f. 01.01.2016.
4. Accordingly, all the CFTIs are requested to workout the pension/ family
pension of pre-01.01.2016 faculty and non-faculty pensioners/family

pensionary benefits such as gratuity etc. are to be made applicable to only

This order is applicable in only those cases where such pension schemes
have already been adopted with prior approval of Government of India/
Ministry of Human Resource Development (MHRD), as amended from time to
time.
8. In case any institute has revised pension in a manner different from the
above formulations, the same may have to be reworked by the concerned
institute and necessary adjustments are to be made.
9. Any excess payment made on account of incorrect fixation of pension or
any other excess payment made shall be adjusted/recovered against the
future payments due or otherwise to the beneficiary.
