A copy of the Table, presently applicable for calculating the commuted value of pension, is at Annexure. The commuted amount of pension is restored on completion of 15 years from the date the reduction of pension becomes operative.

The existing Table of the values for calculation of lump sum commuted value of pension was incorporated in the Central Civil Services (Commutation of Pension) Rules, 1981 in implementation of the recommendations of the Sixth Central Pay Commission vide Department of Pension & Pensioners’ Welfare O.M. No. 38/37/08-P&PW(A) dated 2nd September, 2008 . This Table is based on LIC (94-96) Ultimate Tables and rate of interest of 8%. While recommending the aforesaid Table, the Sixth Central Pay Commission did not recommend any change in the period of 15 years for restoration of commuted pension. The Seventh Central Pay Commission also did not recommend any change in the said period for restoration of commuted pension.

Hon’ble High Court of Delhi, vide order dated 17.01.2019, dismissed a Writ Petition No. 1222/2015 seeking reduction in the period for restoration of commuted pension. An SLP(C) No. 8852/2019 filed against the said order of Hon’ble High Court of Delhi was also dismissed by Hon’ble Supreme Court on 15th April 2019.

2. Representations have been received from the absorbees pensioners, who had taken lump-sum payment in lieu of 100% pro-rata pension on absorption, that the benefit allowed to the absorbee pensioners in terms of
O.M. dated 11.7.2013 is not adequate. These representations have been examined in this Department. The main thrust of these representation is that the 1/3rd restored pension may be revised w.e.f. 1.1.2006 by adding dearness pension and dearness relief as on 1.1.2006 alongwith 40% fitment benefit to the pre-revised 1/3rd restored pension.

3. The matter has been examined in this Department. The instructions for revision of 1/3rd pension were issued by this Department’s O.M. No.4/38/2008-P&PW(D) dated 15.9.2008, keeping in view the formula laid down by Hon’ble High Court of Andhra Pradesh in its judgement dated 24.12.2003 which was accepted in Supreme Court judgment dated 29.11.2006 and 24.7.2007.  Hon’ble CAT, Hyderabad Bench in its order dated 27.9.2011 in OA 710/2010 inter-alia observed that the a.M. dated 15.9.2008 was legally sustainable.  However, the Hon’ble CAT directed to pass an order so as to equalize the revised 1/3rd restored pension of absorbees with the revised pension of other Central Government pensioners.

4. Keeping in view the above direction of Hon’ble CAT, Hyderabad Bench, which was upheld by High Court of Andhra Pradesh and Supreme Court, orders were issued vide this Department’s C.M. of even number dated 11.7.2013 to revise 1/3rd restored pension of absorbee pensioners to 2.26 times of the pre-revised 1/3rd restored pension. This is explained by the following example:
