Sixth Pay Commission Readers Views

I wish to record my appreciation to Brig Kamboj and Brig Narula for working out such detailed tables. The work done is commendable. Knowing the country's financial wizards I am sure the bonanza won't be as good as what has been indicated in the Pension Table. The multiplication factor is 2.14 and not 2.28. Only point of contention would be whether the pensions will match the lowest pensions of the same rank on 01 Jan 2006. I think its best to wait for the actual financial pundits to issue the letters.

1. I retired as Lt Col(S) in Nov 1993 after over 28 yrs of service (date of commission -Jun 1965). As per tables displayed, I would get a pension Rs 18742/- plus DA (Rs 21367 Mar 2008). Lt Col retiring in 2007, say after 20 to 25 yrs of service would get all inclusive total of Rs 29469. A difference of over Rs 8000/. Is this correct?
2. I could not locate where pensions have been delinked from pay of serving personnel.
3. what is the advantage of one rank one pension. Two Lt Cols one with 30 yrs of service and second with 20 yrs will draw different pay, but same pension?
4. May I be enlightened on the above please.

Lt Col VK Grover (Retd)

1. Whether MSP and GP has been factored in while calculating pension in the revised scale as per recommendation.
2. That the revised pension shall not be less than 50% of the minimum pay of the rank in which retired as per the pay commission report.
3. What does it mean to say that pension has been delinked from all future revision of pay and allowances ofserving personnel?
4. Now that rank pay has been replaced by MSP and GP what compensation do existing pensioners get?
A clarification on the subject will help.
