As per 12th BPS and 9th Joint Note signed between UFBU & IBA on 8th March'24,Ex-gratia to pensioners may be paid as follows:
"Ex gratia amount payable shall be the Basic pension attracting DA/DR + DA/DR paid for October, 2022 multiplied by the Factor as provided in the above Table after round up/down. To round up / down to the nearest 100, (i.e. 49 and below shall be round down to lower hundred and 50 and above shall round up to higher hundred)
ii. Basic Pension would mean the full basic pension as on 31st October, 2022 (not the reduced basic pension after commutation)"
Accordingly an illustration and a calculator has been found provided by AIBEA.( posted here earlier)
While showing the figures pertaining to 6th and 7th BPS pensioners, both the above shows DR at 100% neutralisation rate instead of tapered formula existed in oct 22.
Is it an error or omission on the part of AIBEA? Or any plan to modify to full DR to pre 2002 pensioners?
Please see below both for DR variation:
