PRE-2016 DISABILITY PENSIONERS
(a) Disability and War Injury awards have been restored to
the formula as applicable to civilians. The rate shall now be revised to Old
Award as admissible on 31-12-2015 (under enhanced OROP rates based on the percentage
formula applicable at that time) X 2.57 with effect from 01-01-2016.
(b) Orders for notional percentage based calculations with
fresh 7th Central Pay Commission scales as the backdrop, not yet
issued.
Post-2016 Disability pensioners:
(a) Broad banding/rounding-off made applicable to all
cases of disability/war injury pension with effect from 01-01-2016 but only to
post-2016 retirees (hence as of now, status quo continues with respect to the
legal position for Pre-2016 retirees).
(b) The percentage based rules for calculation of
disability/war injury/other casualty awards shall remain the same (percentage
based) as were applicable prior to 2016.
(c) Additional old age pension on attaining the age of 80
or above restored for disability and war injury pensioners (however, the same
has not yet been restored for Pre-2016 retirees).
