Hello,
Thank you for your question regarding pension eligibility and nominee declaration in India.
According to the Employee's Pension Scheme (EPS) in India, the pension benefits can be passed on to the spouse and two children below the age of 25 years. In the absence of a spouse and eligible children, the pension can be claimed by dependent parents. However, the Supreme Court of India has ruled that the mother of the deceased employee cannot claim the pension if the father is alive, irrespective of the nominee declaration.
So, in your case, the wife is eligible for pension as per EPS, but the mother isn't eligible if the father is still alive.
Here's what you can do to ensure your nominees receive the maximum benefits:
1️⃣ Make sure to update your nominee information regularly in your EPF account.
2️⃣ In case of any changes in your family status (e.g., marriage, birth of children), promptly update your nominee details.
3️⃣ Educate your nominees about the rules and regulations of pension benefits.
4️⃣ In case of any disputes, legal advice should be sought.
Remember, the primary aim of pension benefits is to ensure financial security for the family members after the employee's demise. So, it's essential to keep your nominee details updated and ensure your family members are aware of their rights.
Please note that the rules are subject to changes and it's always recommended to check the latest EPF rules and regulations. For more specific advice, consider consulting with a legal professional or a financial advisor.
🔹 It is important to note that this information is based on current understanding of rules and regulations and may change based on changes in laws.
Hope this information helps! 😊
