EPO Widow & Child Pension Calculation

Mitalipatowary
Sir, my friend has got to know that she is eligible for epo widow pension. Is her minor son also entitled? Her husband was in service from October 2000 to March 2021.
Queries - 1) what is the calculation of her pension & what is the amount ?
2) what amount will her minor son be entitled to ?
Thank you.

Dear Mitalipatowary,
I think EPFO member died while working in service. If so widow is eligible to get equal pension eligible to member subject to a minimum pension stipulated in Table C. If salary is Rs.6500 or above, this minimum is Rs.2051.Two children up to an age of 25 years are eligible to get 25% each of widow pension.
