By order of the BoardSecretary, Nabakrushna Choudhury Centrefor Development Studies, BhubaneswarA Guideline on detailed process and procedure of sanction of Pension & Gratuity to the Retired Employees of Nabakrushna Choudhury Centre for Development Studies

1. Exercise of Option - Under Rule 40 to 46 of N.C.D.S. Service Condition & Retirement Benefit Rules 1997, every employee of the Centre shall be entitled either to benefit of the Pension Scheme at the rate applicable to the State Government Employees, as amended from time to time, or to the benefit of Contributory Provident Fund (CPF) Centre, as he may opt. The employees of the Centre who opt for pension scheme shall be entitled to Pensionary benefits (including family pension) & gratuity (including death-cum-retirement gratuity), as applicable from time to time at the rate of state government employees w.e.f. such date as would be notified in Government, of Orissa gazette.

1.2In case of existing employees and employees who will join the Centre as per terms of Rule 40 of the condition of Services 1997 and opted for or deemed to have opted for Pension Scheme the amount contributed to CPF together with interest accrued, therein till the date of their exercising option shall be credited to the Pension Fund of the Centre as per Rule 46 of the condition of Service 97.
1.3The employees under Pension Scheme shall subscribe to the GPF Account which shall be opened and operated by the Centre in accordance with the provision of Provident Fund Act & Orissa General Provident Fund Rules.

2. Period to be Calculated for Superannuation - In accordance with Rule 20 of the Condition of Service the period of qualifying service of employees for determination of the grant of pension & gratuity and family pension shall be counted up to the age of 60 years in case of academic & academic supporting staff and for non-academic staff it shall be 58 years of age.

3. Qualifying Service - The period of qualifying service rendered by an employee under any of the institution specified under Rule 43 & 44 of the condition of Service Rule 97 shall count for purpose of Pension & gratuity subject to following conditions as laid down in provision 43 & 44, of the rule.

3.1In case of an employee previously governed under the pension scheme, the former employer or employee shall pay to the Centre the amount equivalent to pension and gratuity payable for the period of service rendered under such employer.
3.2In case of employee previously governed under CPF Scheme the former employer or the employee shall pay to the Centre the subscription of the employee along with the employers contribution and interest therein up to the date of the payment.
3.3In case where the employee has already received retirement benefits such as Pension/gratuity for his past services, he may, at his request, be allowed to count such past services when followed by service qualifying for pension under the aforementioned rules as part of such service, provided he deposited with the Centre the amount received by him earlier in suitable instalments as may be allowed by the Centre.

4. Advance calculation of Pension & provision in the Annual Budget - The Administrative section of the Centre shall prepare in the month of April every year a list of employees who are due to complete 58 or 60 years of age, as the case may be, and are due to retire from Centre's services within next 24 to 30 months. Then the Secretary of the Centre shall prepare a statement calculating the amounts of Pension & Gratuity payable to each employee and submit the same to the Director to place in the Accounts Committee of the Centre with draft Budget estimate. After approval of the same by the Finance Committee the amount required shall be provided in the annual budget of the Centre, along with the cases of employees retiring for reasons other than by way of superannuation.

Preparation of Pension Paper

5. Verification of Service Book two years prior to retirement and updating the same - (a) Two years before the retirement of an employee the Administrative section/Secretary shall initiate verification of the Service Books & other co-related matters in order to rectify the gaps, omission and deficiencies, if any, in the Service Books. Prompt action should be taken to rectify the omissions and deficiencies. Of course, verification does not mean total overhand but a scrutiny for purpose of ascertaining qualifying service.

(b)Preparation of Pension Paper - Instead of asking the retiring employee to submit formal application for pension in the prescribed form the Administrative section/Secretary of the Centre shall obtain particulars from the retiring employee at least two years before the date of retirement in the prescribed form and prepare the Pension papers accordingly. Processing of Pension papers should be completed by the Administrative section/Secretary 12 months in advance of the date of retirement of the employee. Thereafter calculating the qualifying service and emoluments for purpose of determining pension shall be taken up on the basis of entries in the service book/records ignoring any deficiency in the service book.
Pension shall be computed taking into account the pay drawn for last month of the preceding date on which the employee attains the age of 58 or 60, as the case may be, or earlier if the employee retires before the age of superannuation Special pay shall not be taken into account for Pension & gratuity/D.C.R. gratuity.Determination of Qualifying Service

6. Determining of qualifying service - While determining qualifying service for pension, the following procedures shall be followed.

(a)Specific entries in the service book regarding non-qualifying period shall be excluded from the total service to be reckoned as qualifying without causing any enquiry into past records. Unless specific entry of "non-qualifying" has been mentioned such period shall count towards qualifying service.
(b)Extraordinary Leave taken on the ground of medical treatment for undergoing higher technical and scientific studies/training etc., shall count towards qualifying service but taken on all other grounds shall not be counted towards qualifying service. Unless the period of extraordinary leave has been specifically recorded to be non qualifying it shall be deemed to be qualifying service.
(c)Period of Suspension-Suspension period shall be reckoned as qualifying service, unless specific entries in this regard has been made in the service book/records and/or on the declaration of the competent authority regarding the extent of the period of suspension to be counted towards qualifying service.
(d)Period of Service - Break in Service i.e., period of interruption between Break in two spells of service caused due to resignation, dismissal or removal from service or participation in a strike/unauthorised work stoppage/ by what ever form it is known, will under no circumstance to be reckoned as qualifying service for pension. In absence of specific indication to the contrary in the service book/records an interruption between two spells of service will be treated as automatically condoned and the pre-interruption service is treated as qualifying service for pension.
(e)Deputation as Foreign Service - Deputation on Foreign Service Realisation of foreign service contributions is the responsibility of the organisation and the deputation sanctioning authority. This shall have no bearing on the sanction of pension. In cases, when the employee, in his own interest is required to pay the contribution to maintain continuity in Pensionable service, the competent authority may accept the evidences produced by the employee in support of his statement and accordingly finalise the period with a liberal attitude.
(f)Service under State Government & specified other institutions-how to be counted for qualifying service - Services rendered under State Government, and other institutions mentioned under rule 44 of the NCDS Employee Condition of Service Rules, 1997 shall be considered for purpose of Pension, of those opted for Pension Scheme, in the following manner.
(i)An employee becomes eligible for full retirement benefits provided he has rendered 33 years of qualifying service till the date he completes the age of 58 years or 60 years, as the case may be. Such an employee will be allowed to combine such period of his past service as may be required to make up 33 years of qualifying service for purpose of full retirement benefits, provided that either his former employer(s) or the employee himself, pay the amount equivalent to Pension and gratuity payable for the period of such past service, along with accumulated G.P.F. amounts with interests thereon upto the date of payment, which shall be deposited in his P.F. Account maintained by the Centre, as opening balance. Where an employee has already received his G.P.F. accumulations & retirement benefits, such as, pension & gratuity for his past service, he may be allowed to count such past service when followed by service qualifying for pension as such service, provided he deposits with the Centre such amount received along with interest there on in suitable instalments as may be allowed by the Centre.
(ii)Evidence of Past Service Records & Documents as mentioned below shall have to be produced by the employee at the Centre in support of his qualifying service. But in all such cases the decision of the Centre (i.e., B.O.G.) shall be final.

1. Original service book with entries up to the date of his relief from the parent establishment or its duplicate copy duly attested by former employer, or

2. Original appointment order followed by regular and continuous annual increment orders until the date of his relief from the parent establishment, former employer, or its photo copies duly attested by a gazetted officer, or

3. Such other documents as may be acceptable to the Director and Chairman as proof of his past service particulars.

As employee, who cannot produce any of the documentary evidence specified above in respect of his past services, shall not be entitled to the terminal benefits for any past services. In such case, only the service rendered under the Centre shall count for purpose of qualifying service and terminal benefits.
(iii)Accumulation in the G.P.F. in the employees account under the past employer together with interest accrued thereon till the date of payment to the Centre shall be paid to the Centre by the former employer, if such amount has not been drawn by the employee after his/her relief from the service under the former employer, which shall be deposited into his G.P.F. Account as opening balance. If the GPF accumulation have already been drawn by the employee he will have to pay the amount to the Centre together with interest thereon till the date of payment, to be credited into his GPF Account as opening balance.
(iv)An employee who was under the contributory P.F. Scheme during his past service but has opted for pension scheme under the .Centre, shall pay to the Centre the accumulated amount of contribution of the former employer up to the date of his relief along with his own contributed subscriptions together with interests (on own contribution and employer's contribution) accrued thereon till the date of payment to the Centre which will be credited to his G.P.F. Account as opening balance.
Provided that, if the employee has not drawn the Contributory P.F., amount from his former establishment the concerned employer shall pay his contribution & subscription of the employee relating to the past service of the employee together with interest accrued thereon.
(v)The Pension contribution of an employee for the period of past service rendered by him shall be calculated with reference to the Pension rules in vogue on the date of his quiting past service. Under the ordinary rules a person who has rendered not less than 10 years of continuous qualifying service is eligible for pension. As such in the case of employees who have rendered less than 10 years of qualifying service under any former employer as mentioned in the pension rules of the Centre, the amount payable by them shall be only the gratuity which they would have been entitled to receive for their past service from the former employer. In the case of employees who have rendered 10 years or more service under any former employer, the amount of the commuted value of their pension should be worked out in accordance with the rules in vogue and their the employer or the employee himself should pay his amount to the Centre along with the gratuity for the past service rendered. The table of present value prescribed by the Government of Orissa for commutation of Pension is enclosed (Annexure). Ordinarily Pension & gratuity is not payable to an employee before his superannuation from the Centre service. Therefore the employees who rendered service in a pensionable establishment are not required to pay any interest on the amount of Pension & gratuity for the past service. However, if an employee has already received Pension & gratuity for the past services under the rules of such employer, the amount so received along with interest thereon from the date of receipt till the date of deposit shall be deposited with the Centre.
(vi)The interest chargeable on amounts equivalent to pension, gratuity & P.F. accumulation payable for the past service shall he simple interest @ 3% per annum.
No Dues/Demand Certificate

7. Clearance from various section of the Centre to be moved 6 months before retirement-(a) The Administrative section/Secretary shall send a list of retiring employees at least six months before the retirement to various sections of the Centre, viz. Academic, Accounts, Establishment, Stores & Library etc. The concerned section & the library shall intimate to the Administrative section four months before the retirement of the employee about the amounts or article due to be recovered from the retiring employees.

Recovery of House rent - In case an employee has been provided with a quarter and he desires to retain the same for a period beyond the date of his retirement, not extending three months in any case, he must deposit the rent in advance for three months and clear all other dues relating to occupation of the house only after which the gratuity & pension amounts shall be released even if the retiring employee vacates the quarter, after deduction of the outstanding rent & other dues.If for any reason any section is unable to issue the N.D.C. owing to failure of the employees concerned to adjust the advances taken by him/her to return the articles or books, an amount equivalent to the amount outstanding and/or the cost of articles/books shall be recovered from his death-cum-retirement gratuity. A surety bond shall be obtained for payments made in excess of amount due or dues realised or unassessed for any reason.
(b)Adjustment of dues for D.C.R.G. - The Administrative section shall ascertain/assess the outstanding dues on account of advances, over payment of pay or allowances, library books etc. recoverable from the retiring employee. In case the employee fails to adjust such outstanding advances etc. before four months of retirement, the Administrative section shall assess the amount to be adjusted from the D.C.R.G. of the employee and indicate the same in the pension papers to be sent to the Controller of Accounts, Orissa. If after the Pension papers are transmitted to the Controller of Accounts, Orissa, additional recoveries to be made from gratuity comes to notice, the fact shall be promptly reported to the Controller of Accounts, Orissa, well before retirement of the employee.

8. Scrutiny & Sanction of Pension by the Director - After the Pension papers have been prepared and processed in the Administrative section the same shall be transmitted to the Finance section for scrutiny and return of the same to the Administrative section. The Administrative section and the Secretary shall place the Pension papers before the Director for sanction of the Pension & gratuity to the employee concerned. All these process shall be completed by the Administrative section minimum four months before the retirement of the employee. The sanction of Pensions & gratuity along with all relevant papers shall be transmitted to the Controller of Accounts, Orissa, so as to reach him not later than three months before the date of retirement of the employee.

The Controller of Accounts after due scrutiny of the sanction order and related papers shall issue the Pension payment order (P.P.O.) at least one month before the retirement of the employee authorising the payment of pension and gratuity from the Treasury indicated by the employee in his/ her application for pension. No pension or gratuity shall be paid to an employee before he/she completes the age of 58 years or 60 years as the case may be, or retirement for reasons other than by way of super-annuation. Copies of Pension & gratuity payment orders shall be sent by the Controller of Accounts to the Treasury concerned and to the Director of the Centre for further action.The Controller of accounts shall be competent to recover the amounts due to be recovered from the Death-cum-Retirement gratuity of the employee at the times of authorising the payment of the said gratuity from the Treasury. The amount recovered from the gratuity of the employee shall be credited to the general fund of the Centre for adjustment of outstanding dues.The order for payment of provisional pension/gratuity shall be sent to the Controller of Accounts, Orissa who will issue authority for payment of provisional pension/gratuity. In case the processing cannot be completed or where intimation for payment of final pension/gratuity is not received from the Controller of Accounts, Orissa during the next 6 months after the retirement of the employee, the provisional order shall be deemed as the final pension order. The balance of gratuity, if any, shall also be released in full and the Controller of Accounts, Orissa, shall be intimated accordingly.Where Departmental Proceed/Judicial case Is pending against the employee - The provision regarding automatic conversion of pension order in to final pension order shall not be applicable in the case of retired employee against whom departmental proceeding/judicial cases are pending.
