Dear sir,
The confusion over the refund of the amount by retired employees-
(Quote)
-14. Steps are taken separately to advise those who retired from the
service from 29.09.1995 in the last
known address, the following information as available in the Bank’s
records.
(a) The amount of Bank’s contribution to PF with interest paid to him/
her at the time of retirement including management contribution
portion of NRW, if any, with interest.
(b) 56% of the above amount representing his/her share in the funding
gap.
(c) The lump sum amount he/she may get if he/she exercises his/her
option to join the pension scheme and choose to commute 1/3rd of basic
pension.
- point no (a)" Interest" word is mentioned at two places, first
appears to be the interest receives at the time of retirement and
second interest to be refunded from the date of receipt of the PF
refund. This is a confusion, created by the bank management.

The good thing is that management is kind enough to inform each
individual retired employee for the possible amount to be refunded,
after adjustment of commutation amount.

However bank has not provided the medical examination form, as this is
required by all the retired employees who are option pension after one
year of retirement.

Dear Sir,
The other interest applicable to those who have availed NRW. For them they have to pay interest on NRW portion. I think this will be communicated by the bank seperately to you.

Dear Sirs,
 
At last Syndicate Bank came out with the pension circular but nothing contained new in it. So far we can say that DENA BANK circular is the best of all as they will recover the amount after setting off both the commutation amount pension arrears till the date of recovery. Rest every thing is similsr in almost all the banks. To inform the retirees at their last known address is mandatory for all the banks.
 
SBBJ has also come out with the pension circular which is called better in some extent. They have told that recovery will be made after setting off the commutation amount if requested by the pensioner. They offered to submit the option letter to-(1) His nearest branch, (2) To the branch from where he was retired, (3) To the branch where he maintains an account and (4) To the branch from where he wants to draw his pension in future.
 
SBBJ has instructed their branch managers to mark the date of receipt on the option letter in the branch before handing a copy of it to the pensioner.

Procedure adopted by Corporation Bank for submitting the letter directly to HO is also to be appreciated.

Dear Sirs,

It is unfortunate that some leading banks like PNB, Canara Bank, IOB, BoB etc have not mentioned anything in their circulars  about netting/setting off the commutation amount against the amount due to the banks from retirees. (PF + 56%).

However, members would be glad to note that the following banks have clearly stated in their circulars that retirees will be allowed to pay the difference amount after netting/setting off the commutation amount:

-    Uco Bank
-    Oriental Bank of Commerce
-    Bank of India
-    Union Bank
-    Indian Bank
-    Dena Bank
-    United Bank of India
-    Central Bank of India, etc.

It is very important and necessary that someone take up the matter with the managements of banks like PNB, Canara Bank, Bank of Baroda, IOB, etc. so that they too may extend the facility to the retirees who want to opt for pension.

s.Sakaria.

All banks will make adjustments of commutation value as per joint note irrespective of the fact that the same is not stated in their respective circulars.

On perusal of circulars of various Banks, I am of the considered view that none of the banks, except Dena bank, have applied their mind in the matter. Indeed, the working of these banks is deplorable.It is a sad commentary on their functioning.

friends,
please, don't worry unnecessarily with Ur own doubts. It is prudent on the part of any Bank to adjust the arrears of pension, gratuity, salary and commutation amount payable to us from the amount payable by us towards the pension fund. After working hard for the excellent progress of this wonderful banking industry; none of is should have avoidable tensions atleast during the retired life.

Dear friends,

On behalf of State Bank of Mysore Pensioners' Commune, we met Officials of the bank and we have requested for :

a. Netting of pension arrears
b. Loan at a concessional rate of interest.

They have promised us to look into the matter, favourably.  We are confident that, with the support of the Union and Association, we would secure both.

I find that Union Bank of India is allowing netting of pension arrears also.  I also understand that both Canara Bank and Corporation Bank are also allowing netting of pension arrears.  In all these banks, even commutation amount is also adjusted.

Thanking you,

With regards,

I am retired officer from Dena Bank and happy to inform you that
my bank is extending netting facility for both commutation and 
arrears. I hope that those banks who have still not given the facility of 
netting for commutation and arrears will now start it.
Best regards to all the members.

Netting of commutation is surely allowed..
See Annexure IX with Bank Of India Circular.

Question now remains about arrears?

Dear CN Prasad,

I have received the "Aproximate pension & commutation Payable" work sheet from our Bank. I have taken SVRS in March 2001.

It is said that for VRS employees, 5 years will be added to the qualifying service subject to the maximum of  33 years.

But PGD has taken only 21 years which is my actual completed service and calculated basic pension amount whereas it should have been 21+5=26 years.

PGD's calculation:

Average 10 months Basic Prior to retirement = 9360.00
Average 10 months Total allowance qualifying for PF deduction = 1255.00
Total qualifying service = 21 (before adding 5)

For the above I am getting basic pension of Rs. 3378.00, which is PGD's calculation.

If I add 5 years and make the total qualifying service as 26, the basic pension would be Rs. 4182.00

Please advice what should I do in this situation.

Thanking you in advance,

Best regards,

A. Jayakrishnan.

I am grateful for the group of retired bank employees in sending latest information about 2nd. option of pension. It is also a great news that some banks have allowed to set off the amount tobe refunded from receivable commutation value and arrears of pension.But PNBank is not doing so. I AM FROM PNBANK COMPULSORY RETIRED IN 1999 AFTER SERVING ABOUT 22 YEARS OF SERVICE AS AN OFFICER. COULD SOMEONE CLEAR THE POSITION ABOUT COMPULSORY RETIRED PERSON, WHETHER THE CASE WOULD BE REFERRED TO THE BOARD FOR APPROVAL TO MAKE HIM ELIGIBLE FOR PENSION OR NOT.
