Dear HR Fraternity,

Thanks.,
Ramakrishnan G

at present maximum limit is capped at 7500/- while the minum is 1000/- depends on the service period and last 60 months average EPS salary

Dear friends,
There is no upper limit for PF pension.
Abbas.P.S

Dear Mr Abbas sir, what do you mean by PF Pension? are you referring to EPS Pension.

Dear Srinath Sairam,
As EPS is provided by EPFO, it is usually referred as PF pension. Hence either use EPS (Employees' Pension Scheme) or PF pension. But not EPS pension.
Abbas.P.S

@abbasiti
no of years x EPS salary ( presently capped 15000/) / 70
now you can calculate as maximum service span is calculated @ 35 years in normal cases

Dear All,
Is there any formula to calculate pf pension??
@ please help to understand how to calculate pension amount.
Thanks,
Mahesh Jadhav

Dear All,
Pls check if the following working formula helps you in arriving pension amount. You need to change no. of years of service and assumed contributions.
Example with ceiling salary for EPS contribution
Based on information provided, you worked for 32 years and retired on 31st December 2015 (DOB 29.12.1957) (Employment from 31.12.1983 to 31.12.2015) attained age of 58 yrs.
Pensionable salary = average of last 60 months ceiling salary as applicable.
In the last 16 months before retirement this was 15,000 (1250 a month) and before that for 44 months it was Rs. 6500 (541 P. M.)
So you have pensionable monthly salary as under:
[(16 x 1250=20000) + (44 x 541=23804)=43804]/60 = Rs. 730
Pensionable annual salary ~ Rs.730 x 12 Rs. 8760 (12 times 730)
EPS Pension = 8760 x (32+*2)/70 ~ Rs. 4,255
The above calculation is based on assumption that there was no loss of pay and had contributed full for last 60 months. It may vary if there was any deduction.
* 2 years Bonus service is added after putting 20 yrs. of service. Hence you are eligible for 32+2=34 yrs. of pensionable service.

Suresh
