I request to all learned senior citizens of this forum and to all retiree leadership to clarify one point regarding this payment to pre 1986 survivors and family pensioners that whether a PSB can make such enhanced payment without seeking a clearance from MoF/DFS. How they can make such payment without prior permission of IBA and MoF. If at all it is cleared by govt/IBA than it should be applicable to all the parties to BPS.

Management of Union Bank has taken the decision to give this rise to Pre-1986 Retirees, without instruction from IBA or without negotiating with Unions. This means that individual PSU Bank Management is authorised to give such rise to their Pensioners. Will the Managements of all PSU Banks take similar decision to give such relief to Pre-2002 Retirees also or to all Pensioners?

Dear Mr.Sathyendra kumar Bansal,

Individual banks in the past also extended such benefits to retirees  on different issues.

Some of the PSBs are extending partial reimbursement of IBA group Medi insurance premium to retirees by their own.

So let us welcome such good gestures shown by at least few PSBs benefitting retirees /families by their own.

Yes.In policy matters affecting all pensioners in industry Banks may have to get approval from MOF.

As far as I know any PSB can grant extra amount to Pensioners from Bank. But they can't change Pension amount or ex gratia amount. That why they have mentioned in there circular that this 10000 is in addition to ex gratia amount. They have not changed ex-gratia amount this is only an additional help from bank and PSB has the power to do it.

 It is totally my point of view I may be wrong.

Shri P.Mohan,

We have come across from the Association sources that IBA wants
to extend the updation in parts - first to Old retirees getting ex-gratia, 
then to pensioners upto 2002 end and so on.



May be Banks have been advised to start payment to pre 1986 
retirees.

There is also an opinion, that the Govt. in order to go ahead with
their plan of privatisation,and this one is a bait.

Regards.

It is being opined by legal experts that Banks are empowered to
take decision in matters relating to their pensioners and
pass Board resolution to that effect and then forward the same to
concerned Ministry.  We have seen in case of RBI pensioners similar
action and recommendations by RBI Management.

In our case, the Banks have, for their own convenience, created the
IBA for similar purposes and actions. Even if local associations 
approach the Management  of their respective Banks, they will be
simply directed to IBA.

That is our dilemma!

Dear Shri.Anantharaman,

Since we do not know what is in the mind of IBA regarding Updation of Pension,we cannot presume  any  thing as of now.
We have heard from IBA on formation of an exclusive committee on updation of pension and submission of report to Apex Court etc! Every thing now vanished!

Now we hear on  idea of extending updation of pension to retirees bifurcating them year wise,in stages, from one association.

There too we do not find a word on neutralisation of  hundred percent DA to pre 2002 retirees! Though updation of pension take care of same aspect.Let IBA do it fast.

Perhaps you might have observed from the list of eighty retirees  provided by Union Bank Of India, only negligible pre 1986 are alive now and rest relate to  spouses of pre 1986 retirees.This may be the case with other banks.So if banks want they can enhance the payment at any point of time to these negligible number who are still alive now.
It has not happened .Under this back drop UBI has done a good job.

Another point always quoted is on merger of CPI points with Basic Pension as in the case of serving employees.Now also a mention is found made on merger of CPI points of 6352 to all pensioners up to 2012 settlement period.

As I have stated on earlier occasions, It may not give much benefit to all  pensioners, but certainly  it may benefit to  pre  2002 pensioners specifically,to resolve their long pending issue.Let it happen this time.

Surprise is no where talk on updation of pension as per  RBI formula  has came out from relevant sources!.

Privatisation may happen,as per GOI platforms.

So what is in store for bank pensioners cannot be predicted right  now!

Dear sirs,
I feel that such thinking is a negative action. I am a retired person from Union Bank of India.  According to me it is a magnanimous action of the bank especially when IBA is still delaying the updation process for reasons best known to them only. I feel that your suggested action will bring in more mind blocks than doing anything for the betterment of hapless retirees. Regards,
S Rajamani.

As far as possible,please do not create fake news.IBA is not interested to talk to ufbu regarding updation and other residual matters and you are guessing things for your daily posts

Canara Bank has issued circular on 30.07.2022 vide which under point no 10, bank has allowed a payment of sum of Rs 3000/- per month in addition to ex gratia payment to pre 1986 retirees.
Hence, it appears that some instructions might have passed on to banks from IBA to pay extra amount to this class of retirees.

Quote "10. SPECIAL SCHEME FOR PRE-1986 RETIREES OR SPOUSE OF SUCH DECEASED RETIREES WHO ARE PAID EX-GRATIA AMOUNT BY THE BANK.
All surviving Pre-1986 retirees or spouses of such deceased retirees, who are being paid ex-
gratia amount from our Bank every month, will be paid Rs. 3,000/- per month respectively
under Staff Welfare Measures for the year 2022-23. The amount will be paid every month
along with the ex-gratia amount through Employees’ Pension Fund, without the beneficiary
claiming the same as done hitherto.

Canara Bank has been paying lumpsum amount to pre 1986 retirees and family pensioners, since last few years under staff welfare measures
over and above ex gratia and this year the amount is increased to Rs.3000/- per month.
