Office Memorandum
Sub: Simplification of pension procedure
- submission of undertaking by retiring
Government servant along with pension papers - reg.
'The Scheme for Payment of pensions
to Central Government Civil Pensioners
through Authorised Banks', issued by the Central Pension
Accounting Office provides for an
undertaking to be submitted by the retiring Government
servant/pensioner to the pension
disbursing bank before commencement of pension. The
pensioner undertakes to refund or
make good any amount to which he is not entitled.
2. It has been found that the first
payment of pension after retirement gets delayed mainly
due to two reasons. One, the delay in receipt of intimation
by the pensioner that pension
papers have reached the bank and two, delay on part of the
pensioner in approaching the
bank for submission of undertaking.
3. The feasibility of submission of
undertaking by the retiring Government servant along
with pension papers had been under consideration in the
Government for some time. The
following simplification has therefore been approved with
the concurrence of Department of
Expenditure, vide their I.D. No.130/E.V/2014, dated 24th
February, 2014. The required
undertaking may be obtained by the Head of Office from the
retiring Government servant
along with Form 5 and other documents before his retirement.
This undertaking shall be
forwarded to the pension disbursing bank along with the
Pension Payment Order by the
Accounts Officer/CPAO following the usual procedure. The
bank shall credit the pension to
the account of the pensioner as soon as this Undertaking is
received along with the pension
documents.
4. The pensioner would no longer be
required to visit the bank to activate the first
payment of pension. Therefore, after ascertaining that the
Bank's copy has been despatched
by the Central Pension Accounting Office, the pensioner's
copy of the Pension Payment
Order (PPO) may be handed over to him at the time of
retirement along with other retirement
dues. This should be feasible in all cases where the Government
servant had submitted
pension papers within the time-limits prescribed in the
Central Civil Services (Pension)
Rules, 1972.
5. An employee posted at a location
away from the office of the Head of Office or
who for any other reasons feels that it would be more
convenient to him to obtain his copy of
PPO from the bank, may inform the Head of Office of his
option in writing while submitting
his pension papers.6. Office of Controller General of
Accounts is requested to instruct all Pay and Accounts
Offices and all pension disbursing banks to follow the above
procedure as well as make
necessary amendments to the pension sanction and payment
procedures and the Scheme
Booklet.
7. All Ministries/Departments are
requested to follow the above procedure
henceforth. Department of Posts and Department of
Telecommunications are requested to
make suitable amendments to the instructions to the Accounts
Officers and pension
disbursing Post Offices/Banks to adhere to the above
procedure.
