Retirement Benefits

Grant of Dearness Relief

No.45/73/97-P&PW(G) Government of India

Ministry of Personnel, Public Grievances & Pensions

Department of Pension & Pensioners' Welfare

Date: 2nd July, 1999

OFFICE MEMORANDUM

Subject: Recommendations of the 5th Central Pay Commission-Payment of Dearness Relief to re-employed pensioners and employed family pensioners-Decision regarding.

In terms ofthe existing orders, Dearness Relief to pensioners and family pensioners is to remain suspended during the period a pensioner/family pensioner is re­employed/employed under the Central or State Government or in a Statutory Corporation/Company/Body/Bank under them in India or abroad. These orders are also applicable to pensioners and family pensioners permanently absorbed in a Statutory Corporation/Company/Body/Bank under the Central or State Government.

2. In paragraph 138.21 of their Report, the 5th Central Pay Commission had recommended that Dearness Relief should be paid to employed family pensioners andre­employed pensioners in cases where their pay is fixed at the minimum of the pay scale of the post of re-employment ignoring the entire pension, and that, in other cases of re­employment, Dearness Relief shall be payable on pay plus the non ignorable portion of pension as was the case at present. The Commission had further recommended in paragraph 141.12 that, with a view to maintaining the original value of the pension, the payment of Dearness Relief should not be suspended where pay is fixed at the minimum of the pay scale during employment/re-employment of a family pensioner/pensioner.

3. These recommendations have been considered and accepted by the Government. The President is accordingly pleased to decide as follows:

(a) In so far as re-employed pensioners are concerned, the entire pension admissible is to be ignored at present only in the case of those civilian pensioners who held posts below Group 'A' and those ex-servicemen who held posts below the ranks of Commissioned Officers at the time of their retirement. Their pay, on re-employment, is to be fixed at the minimum ofthe pay scale ofthe post in which they are re-employed. Such civilian pensioners will consequently be entitled to Dearness Relief on their pension in terms of the recommendations of the 5th Central Pay Commission at the rates applicable from time to time.

·-

(b) In terms of the existing orders on the subject, the pay of re-employed pensioners who held Group 'A' post or posts ofthe ranks of Commissioned Officers at the time of their retirement is to be fixed at present

• at the same stage as last drawn before retirement or, if there is no such stage, at the stage next above the pay last drawn;at the maximum of the pay scale, if the pay last drawn is more than the maximum of the pay scale of the post in which re­employed;at the minimum of the pay scale of the post in which re-employed, if it is more than the pay last drawn.

• Further, the pay on re-employment is required to be fixed after ignoring only a portion of the pension [Rs. 1 ,500] received for the previous employment. In view of the fact that (i) the pension is taken into account in such cases and is not entirely ignored; (ii) the pay in the post of re-employment is not required to be fixed at the minimum ofthe scale in all cases; and (iii) Dearness Allowance at the rates applicable from time to time is also admissible on the pay fixed in terms of the orders on the subject, these re-employed pensioners will not be entitled, in addition, to any Dearness Relief on their pension.

(c) As regards employed family pensioners, since the family pension received by the eligible dependents of Central Government employees is, in any case, not taken into account in determining their pay on employment, Dearness Relief at the rates applicable from time to time shall be admissible on their family pension.

(d) While implementing these decisions, orders issued by the Department of Personnel & Training vide OM No.3/ l/85-Estt(Pay-II) dated 31.07.1986 and as amended from time to time regarding fixation of pay of re-employed pensioners shall be duly kept in view.

(e) These orders shall be effective from July 18, 1997.

4. (l) In accordance with the Government's decisions, referred to in the preceding paragraph, all family pensioners, in receipt of family pension from the Central Government who were/are employed under the Central Government or the State Government or a Corporation/Company/Body/Bank under them in India or abroad shall be eligible to draw dearness relief, at rates applicable from time to time, on the amount of family pension, with effect from July 18, 1997. A certificate may still be necessary to determine dependency. All Pension Payment Authorities, including authorised Public Sector Banks are requested to forthwith release dearness relief on family pensions in cases where this was withheld on account of the family pensioners concerned being employed. The arrears, if any, due with effect from July 18, 1997 shall also be paid.

Ministry of Defence Deptt. of Ex-servicemen Welfare

Subject : Exercise of delegated Financial powers by DGR - regarding

As you are aware the Government of India has decided to place organizations - Directorate General Resettlement (DGR), Kendriya Sainik Board (KSB) and Ex-serviceme·n Contributory Health Scheme (ECHS) under the administrative control of . Department of Ex­servicemen Welfare and .these organizations have been designated as Attached offices of Department of Ex-servicemen Welfare. Copy of the Gazette Notification is enclosed.

2. Subsequent to the above Notification, this Department is in the process of delegating financial powers to Secretary, KSB. However, until arrangements are made and orders for delegation are issued, DGR is directed to continue to exercise the financial powers delegated to him. He is also requested to ensure that no complication due to non or delayed payments arises.

As you are aware the three organizations of DGR, KSB and ECllS have been designated as Attached Offices of this Department one year ago vide Notification elated 29'11

January 2009 (encl. I).

2. As a consequence to the aforementio tted notification, Secretary, KSB has been delegated financial powers, vide Order dated 13 Aug 2009 (encl. II); thi s has been done with due approvals.

3. The next logical step is to make a suibbk budgetary allocation for KSB from the provision earlier available under DGR in respect of KSB . In ofher words, part of·the same allocation that ex ists with DGR has to be transferred for KSB under Major Head 2076, Minor Head 800. Action in this regard was initiated by this Department in consultation with MoD(Fin). The original proposal of approximately Rs.4 crores was subsegttently reduced to 2 crores because of the lesser time available in the current financial year. Although the Dte of F~nancial Pla1ming have expressed inability to spare any funds, it is considered worth\·Vhile to bring to your notice the logicality of the step of transferrin g, in view of the remaining two months only, at least Rs.0.5 crore so that the next year's process is smooth and the current year's liabilities can be partially met by KSB itself

4. It is requested that you may kindly intervene in the matter and advise DG FP to allocate an appropriate amount to KSB. This would be an inevitable administrative step in view of the noti.t!cation quoted above.
