The appeal of PM to save petrol and simultaneous increase in rates of petrol and diesel did create a panic and pushed up inflation ! 

    Let us hope slabs will increase in May 2026 !

Dear Mr Suman Kumar,

Under the 12th Bipartite Settlement ,an ex-gratia allowance is paid to eligible bank pensioners and family pensioners who were drawing pension as of October 31, 2022.

An MOU was signed between IBA and Unions on 9.11.2023.

The fixed monthly ex-gratia matrix is calculated based on the retiree's basic pension + DA drawn as of October 31, 2022, and is payable for the period from November 1, 2022, to October 31, 2027 only.

2.Eligible pension  to resignees(20 yrs service) is paid  from date of option and not from date of resignation.

3.Updation of Pension to all pensioners is a demand pending,  which has not yet been granted.We cannot predict on  verdict in a case  pending before court.

Regards,

Mohan.P

Pl note that, MOU was signed on 9.11.2023 to opt for pension by resigned employees.

Yes Sir, as per Labour Bureau, year-on-year inflation for the month of April, 2026 stood at 4.46% as compared to 2.94% in 

April, 2025.

While we go through past few years index numbers for the same quarter, an increasing trend was shown.

In the absence of revision of pension whatever increase is a solace to pensioners,though increase in CPI  is meant to offset the erosion of purchasing power ensuring retirees to maintain their standard of living despite escalating costs of good/services.
