OROP SCHEME - TABLES (OFFICERS)

                        HOW MUCH HAS YOUR PENSION BEEN ENHANCED (INCL %age) ?
     The much awaited tables have since been issued as part of implementation of the OROP. The Table for Officers are placed here in this post. The tables for Medicos  are also  hosted  for our Doctor Fellow Veterans of Pre-2006 retirees. The tables for various types of Family Pensioners can also be accessed with links at the end of this post.
   The Govt letter and detailed tables can be downloaded from  http://www.desw.gov.in/sites/upload_files/desw/files/pdf/2016.02.03-OROP.pdf . The letter containing tables is a large pdf file of about 15 Mb. It has 205 pages incl 101 Appces of Various tables covering all aspects of pension for officers, JCOs & ORs and their equivalent ranks.
     Look for the figure under your Rank and against the Number of years of actual service i.e the QS mentioned in your PPO. (Your service more than 3 months is to be counted as half year and more than
        9 months is taken as full year. The rank weigtages are not to be added since these have been catered for in the figures of the pensions shown against the QS. The same can be well noticed for higher QS years showing similar figures of pension for the number of years equal to the rank weightage) 
    The figure is your basic pension wef 01 July 2014. Now deduct from this your current basic pension the difference will be your hike in pension for OROP. You will get arrears in 4 installments for the period starting 01 July 2014. These are shown in the table below for full pension.
     Multiply the above derived difference by Maths Constant of "40.53"  (INCREASE X 40.53 = Arrears) you will get the arrears receivable up to 31 JAN 2016. Similarly the total increase monthly as of date can be calculated by multiplying the increase/difference by 2.19 which is the current DA.

 KNOW AS TO HOW OROP HIKES YOUR PENSION:-    The Chart below pertains to the Service pension and the Ordinary family Pension in respect of Regular Officers of the Army Navy and IAF who have completed 33 Yrs and above of  service before retirement incl rank weightage. For officers, with less service detailed tables may be checked which can be opened from the links given at the end of the post.  ( check rank weightages under Qualifying Service in this blog). The tables issued by the PCDA (P) cater for the rank weightages While the service in the service column QS is actual service while the pension figures are already  given for the service plus rank weightage for convenience.

COMMISSIONED OFFICERS   (OTHER THAN AMC/ADC/RVC)

                Notice the percentage increases in respect of the officer's retiring pension

Para 11 (a) of the Circular (MAJORS 21 YRS OF SERVICE)   

a) The officers retired on or after 1.1.1996 in the rank of Major and who have completed
21 years of service have been allowed the pay of Lt.Col. Accordingly, pension of these officers
have been revised by issue of Corr. PPOs. It is therefore, requested to revise the pension of
post-96 Army Officer with rank Major and its equivalent in the Air Force and Navy who have
completed 21 years.

TABLE No 1 (RETIRING PENSION REGULAR OFFICERS)   
        
        PART - 1 (18 TO 25.5 Yrs OF QS)

                      Note - Lt Col (TS) and Lt Col (SG) are under the same Coln,
    

 PART - 2   (26 YRS TO 33 YRS AND ABOVE OF QS)

                           Note -      Lt Col (TS) and Lt Col (SG) are under the same Coln

                   
TABLE CIRCULAR -500.  This table gives the pension of Regular Officers as applicable before the OROP for ease of comparison with your Rank and QS. 

        This circular can be seen at    http://www.pcdapension.nic.in/6cpc/Circular-500.pdf                                                                                                                                           
                                                                                                         
COMMISSIONED OFFICERS  - AMC/ADC/RVC

TABLE 2    - This table gives the Pension of Officers from  AMC / ADC and RVC  as below under the OROP Scheme.  The OROP pension for them for 33 Yrs of Service and above is Rs 42500/- from Lt Col to Maj Gens. There has been no increase in pension under OROP for officers of the Ranks of Lt, Capt, Maj, and Lt Gens.

                      The Arreas shown above are for the period from 01 Jul 2014 to 31 Jan 2016 and will be paid by the PDAs in four equal instalments.

         PCDA (P) Circular No 555  includes Table No 2, which gives detailed authorisation of OROP Pension for the Medical Officers based on their QS (Qualifying Service as mentioned in their PPOs).
      Since under Cir-24 with addition of the NPA the pensions got enhanced by 25% and now under the OROP Scheme are to be enhanced further, these can only go up to the maximum of the  Fitment Table equivalent of Notional Pay of  Rs 79000/- under PB-4  ie just below the HAG+ Scale. Therefore  in most cases the pensions reachs  the max of Rs 42500/- much earlier for various ranks.

       It will be seen that Lt Cols with QS of 22.5 and above, Cols and above with QS of  21.5 Yrs reach the maximum payable pension of Rs 42500/- per month.

       In view of the above Lt Cols who left earlier stand to gain by getting the pension of a Lt Gen.

       The method for calculations of hike and the arrears is same as mentioned above

There is no increase for the ranks as mentioned above at full service, however with lesser QS, there are increases under the OROP Scheme which can be seen.        
The Arrears shown above are for the period from 01 Jul 2014 to 31 Jan 2016. These arrears will be paid to the Family Pensioners in one go.

TABLE CIRCULAR -24 .  This table gives the revised pension of the Medicos, NPA included for comparison with the OROP table above for services less than 33 Yrs .
