methodology
for revision of pension consequent upon issue of GOI,
DP&PW OM No.
38/37/2016-P&PW(A), dated 12.05.2017 was conveyed.
Several queries
in form of letter, email, phone calls are being received for
clarification of certain provisions of the ibid circular. It
has been
decided, therefore to circulate such clarification through
this
circular. Hence, topic wise clarifications are appended
below:-1
a). HOO Code:
(i)
At Para 20 of the circular C-164 dated 30.05.2017, it was
mentioned
that HOO code shall to be obtained by sending email to
pcdapedp.cgda@nic.in in the prescribed proforma duly signed
by Head of
Office (HOO) and Head of Department (HOD). It has been seen
that request
for HOO code allotment is being received in this office in
very sparse manner.
Since, this code is mandatory for preparation of LPC-cum-
Datasheet and
also for transmission of PPOs to Head of Offices, it is
requested to
impress upon the Head of Offices functioning under your
jurisdiction to
kindly forward the request for allotment of HOO code
immediately in
prescribed manner. It is worthwhile to mention here that the
term 'Head
of Department' refer to organization such as OFB, AOC, ENG.,
DRDO, AF,
Navy, DAD, Coast Guard etc. and Head of Office indicates the
Unit (say a
Factories under OFB, a laboratories under DRDO etc.) which
are required
to send claim for pension sanction/revision to this office.
It is also
planned to soon modify existing LPC-cum- Datasheet which is
presently
being used for processing regular pension claims for other
types of
pension including superannuation etc. Therefore, timely
allotment of HOO
Code will avoid any delay in preparation of pension
claims.
(ii)
It may be kept in mind while filling HOO registration form
that column
ORGANISATION should be filled with organisation code(as being
filled in
1st column of existing LPCs) of HOD.
For
example if HOD is Factory organisation then
ORGANISATION Column shall be filled as :
01.
(iii)
It has been observed that in some cases HOO Code has been
allotted, but
the same isshowing error while filling LPC-cum- Datasheet
through
Utility because the leading zero is dropped and then the code
consists
of 5 digits only. The utility has been updated and the
revised version
of the utility is now available on this office website
www.pcdapension.nic.in .
b) LPC-CUM-DATA SHEET
(i). HOO Name (Column2):-
It has also been observed that in the field of 'HOO Name'
name of
officer holding that appointment is mentioned. In this
regard, attention
is invited to filling instructions of Column 2 which
mentions clearly
that the column will be filled with 'office name' of the
pensioners. For
example if Govt. employee retired from HQ CWE SHIMLA HILLS
JUTGAON
CANTT SHIMLA, this column shall be filled as HQ CWE SHIMLA.
In no case,
name of the officer who is Head of the Unit or appointed to
act as HOO
under Delegation of Financial Power Rules 1976 should be
mentioned.
(ii)
In the field of PPO no., slashes '/' are also being
indicated. While it
is clearly mentioned in filling instruction that PPO no.
should be
filled without slashes. For example if PPO no. is
C/MISC/10250/2016, it
should be filled as CMISC102502016 .
(iii) Date of Birth, Date of
Appointment and Date of Retirement should be filled in
(MMDDYYYY)
format. For example if Date of Birth is 5th February 1950 it
shall be
filled as 02/05/1950. Alternatively calendar facility
provided in the
utility may be used.
(iv) It has been observed that pay scale at
the time of retirement is not being filled in the
corresponding column
as provision mentioned under the caption " PAY DETAILS". For
example:
if, Govt. employee retired under 4th CPC in Pay scales 5900-
200-7300
with last pay drawn 6100/- all columns from 4th CPC Pay Scale
and onward
should be filled properly. For example :-
| 4th CPC Scale (as 01.01.1986) | : | 31 (5900-200-7300)
|
| 4th CPC Pay/Notional Pay (as
01.01.1986) | : | 6100 |
| 5th CPC Pay (as 01.01.1996) | : | 29 (18400-500-22400)
|
| 5th CPC Pay/Notional Pay (as
01.01.1996) | : | 18400 |
| 6th CPC Pay Band(as 01.01.2006) | : | 4 (PB-IV) |
| Grade Pay (as 01.01.2006) | : | 10000 |
| 6th CPC Pay/Notional Pay (01.01.2006)
without grade pay | : | 44700 |
| 7th CPC Level of Pay | : | L14 |
| 7th CPC Pay Index | : | 1 |
| 7th CPC Notional Pay (as on 01.01.2016)
| : | 144200 |
(v)
Basic Pension as on 01.01.2016 (Column 29)
It has been observed that in some cases this column is
filled with 50%
of notional pay as on 01.01.2016, which is not correct.
Filling
instruction in this regard is very clear, this column is
meant to
reflect basic pension as on 01/01/2016 as per pre-revised
scale of 6th
CPC. In other words pensionary entitlement under 6th CPC
should be
multiplied by 2.57 and this results need to be reflected in
this column.
(vi)
Name of PDA (Column 45) : As
per filling instructions if PDA is Bank (Code-9), then
filling of
Column no. 45 to 51 i.e. PDA Station, Name of Bank, Bank
Account no.,
IFSC code of Paying Branch and BSR Code of CPPC must not be
left blank.
c) Vetting of Data Sheet
(i).
At Para 20 of the circular C-164 dated 30.05.2017, it was
mentioned
that in the annexed proforma of LPC-Cum-Data Sheet, the claim
will be
forwarded along with all concerned documents by the
H.O.O/H.O.D to PCDA
(Pension) Allahabad after getting it vetted from PAO/LAO
attached. In
this connection it is clarified that it is not necessary to
get LPC-cum-
Datasheet vetted by both authority i.e by PAO and LAO. Any
one of the
two may vet the LPC-cum- Datasheet before forwarding to this
office.
4.
In view of the foregoing, Head of Departments are requested
to issue
suitable instructions (along with copy of this circular) to
all the Head
of Offices under their administrative control to ensure that
claims on
the subject matter are floated in accordance with
clarification given in
above Paras without delay. It is further requested that
HOD's may
evolve suitable mechanism to monitor progress in forwarding
of
LPC-cum-Data Sheet by their sub -offices functioning as on
Head of
Office.
