In partial modification of Government letter No. 3/23/09-3FPPC/885 dated 17-8-2009 on the subject cited above , I am directed to say that the Governor of Punjab is pleased to decide that the benefit of fixation of revised pension envisaged in para 4.2 of the aforesaid letter will be subject to the condition that full pension, in no case shall be less than 50% of the initial pay shown in column 8 of the schedule of the Punjab Civil Services (Revised Pay) Rules, 2009, against relevant Pay Band and Grade Pay corresponding to the pre-revised scale of pay in which the pensioner had last worked. However, such pension will be suitably reduced pro-rata, where the qualifying service of the person falls short of 33 years.
2. The Governor of Punjab is pleased to decide further that the benefit of fixation of revised pension envisaged in para 4.2 of the aforesaid letter will be available for fixation of family pension also subject to the condition that the revised family pension, in no case, shall be lower than thirty percent of the initial pay shown in column 8 of the Schedule of the Punjab Civil Services (Revised Pay) Rules, 2009, against relevant Pay Band and Grade Pay corresponding to the pre-revised scale of pay in which the pensioner/deceased employee had last worked.
3. A table of revised pension/family pension based on Pay Band, Grade Pay, and Initial Pay effective from 1.1.2006 corresponding to the pre-revised scales of pay is enclosed herewith as Annexure–A to facilitate the Payment of revised pension/family pension in all cases where fixation of pension/family pension is more beneficial in terms of the provision of para 4.2 as mentioned above.
4. It shall be the responsibility of the Head of Office/Department from which the Government employee had retired or was working last before his death to inform the Pension Disbursing Authority/Bank about the Pay Band and Grade Pay and Initial Pay corresponding to the pre-revised scale of pay in which the pensioner/deceased employee had last worked. This information will be provided within two weeks of the date of receipt of request from the Pension Disbursing Authority/Bank or the concerned person.
