3. Normal Family Pension का Example

Vide Rule 48(2)

यदि last emoluments ₹60,000 हैं:

Normal family pension = ₹60,000 × 30% = ₹18,000 per month

यदि last emoluments ₹25,000 हैं:

Calculated family pension = ₹25,000 × 30% = ₹7,500

यह amount prescribed minimum से कम है, इसलिए ₹9,000 per month minimum normal family pension लागू होगी।

.

4. Enhanced Family Pension—Death While in Service

Vide Rule 49(1)

मान लीजिए:

  • Employee की continuous service 8 years है।

  • Last emoluments ₹60,000 हैं।

Enhanced family pension = ₹60,000 × 50% = ₹30,000 per month

यह compassionate financial assistance बंद होने के बाद 10 years तक payable होगी। Enhanced period समाप्त होने के बाद applicable normal family pension की rate 30%, यानी इस example में ₹18,000 per month, होगी।

.

5. Enhanced Family Pension—Death After Retirement

Vide Rule 49(2)

मान लीजिए deceased pensioner की pension ₹30,000 per month थी:

Age at death

Enhanced family pension

Enhanced period

56 years

₹30,000 per month

7 years, क्योंकि यह period 65 years की age वाली date से पहले समाप्त होगा।

62 years

₹30,000 per month

उस date तक जब deceased की age 65 years होती—लगभग 3 years।

Actual payment period exact dates के अनुसार calculate होगा।

.

6. Family Pension की Rounding

Vide Rule 48(1)

Calculated family pension

Rounding के बाद amount

₹18,000.00

₹18,000

₹18,000.01

₹18,001

₹18,000.50

₹18,001

₹18,000.99

₹18,001

याद रखें: Normal family pension की rate 30% है। Death while in service के case में enhanced rate 50% है, जबकि death after retirement के case में enhanced amount deceased pensioner की pension के बराबर है। Enhanced family pension के लिए संबंधित service और payment-period conditions भी देखनी होंगी।
