Increasing Pension Limits Under Employees Pension Scheme
The Government is not considering to enhance the
age limit for Employees Pension Scheme (EPS).The Pension implementation
Committee (PIC) has recommended to increase the short service pension entitlement
age from 50 years to 55 years. The proposal is under consideration of the
Central Board of Trustees (CBT),Employees’ Provident Fund (EPF).The proposal,
if accepted is likely to decrease the reduction of pension due to short
service.
