Latest about pension updation
UNITED FORUM OF RESERVE BANK OFFICERS & EMPLOYEES issued a circular dated 28th April 2014 the para 2 of which states:
” Bank took note of our concerns and assured that Bank would be making endeavour to address those and protect the interests of employees and retirees, regarding fixation of pay for pension, “rationalization” of perks and perquisites, alignment with the banking sector including SBI for compensation package with A+ position every five years following settlements there, appropriate amendment of RBI pension regulations etc.”
The circular does not detail anything further.
However,we understand from their sources that United forum has consented to the Bank’s following proposals.
1. Updation of pension every ten years:
2.Bank will extend one more pension option to those who did not opt for it earlier
3.Basic pension to be based on last drawn pay instead of average of TEN months’ last drawn pay.with appropriate Amendments to Pension Regulations.
4. Alignment with Banking Industry and SBI to retain A+ position.The wages shall be reviewed and revised in the context of the settlements in the Industry.
5.Rationalization of perks.

The Bank will now, as a reply to the Government’s earlier letter give its consent in principle. Appropriate approval from the Central Board of Directors will also be sought in the matter.
In short, RBI would recommend the above proposals to MOF, Govt. of India for their final approval. After the GOI gives its assent , necessary instructions in the matter would be issued to the offices.
Those retirees who did not opt for pension earlier should be ready now with money to opt when the bank invites them to do so.

It is almost a month since we heard anything about Pension Updation/Pension Option.Sir any fresh update?
Regards
The Bank replied to MOF in the first week of May on Pension.The MOF will be busy now adjusting to new Political bosses.After that they will be busy with budget preparation due in July.Therefore we can not expect any reply from MOF to the Bank’s letter before August.
The wait continues.
The staff retired in 2001 have completed their 70 th Birth Day.How long they have to wait?
Hope the wise councel prevails on MOF and release the approval letter soon, atleast aftr the bidget session,
read as budget spelling error is regretted in my comments just posted Thanks
Latest information on banks pension revision/updation and progress in BPS.
After the Budget things are likely to move
Alas!September has come.4 months since we have heard anything on the Pension updation/Pension option.
Any thing moving?
VRRao
things seem to be stuck! pray to god only
we are thankful and express our heartiest gratitude to the forum leaders.
It appears nether the United Forum nor the Bank is seriously pursuing the Case.The Bank’s HRMD as well as the Governor as usual continue to give assurances in a progressively diluted form.It is almost 6 months we heard any thing .Any thing latest?
