I had been contributing to PF for 33 years.
Went abroad for an year, out of which while 9 months were with pay remaining 3 were without pay. So there was no contribution for
3 months. When I came back, due to change in circumstances and work environment, had to resign after 2 months.
I opted for revision of pension and paid roughly Rs 600,000/-. To my utter surprise, I got only Rs 5900/- pension while my colleagues
with similar service got Rs 11500/-. On checking, I was told that even though there was not a single day's non-contributory period, because of
last 3 months NCP, it has been reduced.
I was also informed that had I resigned without joining, it would not have affected my pension. I don't understand the logic.
Can anyone throw light on this as to how it can be rectified.
Shall appreciate if any case laws are cited in this regard.
Thanks,
Davinder Randhawa
