EPFO rules regarding pension

According to EPFO rules, if someone invests in PF account for 10 years, then he becomes a claimant for pension. After 50 years, PF account holder can claim for pension. But if he claims pension before 58 years, then there will be a deduction of 4% every year. That is, if someone claims a pension at the age of 54, then there will be a deduction of 16%.

But if someone does not claim a pension even after 58 years, then at the age of 60, he will get 8% more pension at the rate of a 4% increase every year. Let us tell you that under the current rules of EPFO, the maximum limit of pension total salary is Rs 15000. That is, every month only Rs 15000 X 8.33/100 = 1250 can be deposited in your PF pension fund.

This much pension you will get after 60 years.

If you started working at the age of 23 and you are retiring at the age of 58, then you have worked for a total of 35 years. Under the old pension scheme of EPFO, the maximum pensionable salary is Rs 15,000. When any employee leaves UPS, the pensionable salary of the last 60 months is his average monthly salary.

It will be calculated like this:

Pensionable salary X pensionable service/70 = Monthly pension

15000 X 35/70 = 7500

On the other hand, if you do not claim a pension till the age of 8, then you get pension at an extra rate of 8 percent.
