(डा. सुभाष भामरे)

(a) to (d): The  7 th Central  Pay  Commission  (CPC)  recommended  the following on disability pension:-

The Commission is of the considered view that the regime implemented  post  6 th CPC  needs  to  be  discontinued,  and  recommended a return to the slab based system.  The slab rates for disability element for

:  2  :

## 100 percent disability would be as follows:

| Ranks                          | Levels       | Rate per month (INR)   |
|--------------------------------|--------------|------------------------|
| Service Officers               | 10 and above | 27,000                 |
| Honorary Commissioned Officers | 10 and above | 27,000                 |
| Subedar Majors / Equivalents   | 6 to 9       | 17,000                 |
| Subedar / Equivalents          | 6 to 9       | 17,000                 |
| Naib Subedar / Equivalents     | 6 to 9       | 17,000                 |
| Havildar / Equivalents         | 5 and below  | 12,000                 |
| Naik / Equivalents             | 5 and below  | 12,000                 |
| Sepoy / Equivalents            | 5 and below  | 12,000                 |

The above recommendation has been accepted and Resolution dated 30.09.2016 issued accordingly.

The 6 th CPC dispensation of the calculation of disability element on percentage basis, however, continues for civil side which has resulted in an  anomalous situation.   The  issue  has  accordingly  been  referred  to  the Anomaly Committee.  However, the disability element which was being paid as on 31.12.2015 to the eligible defence service pensioners will continue to be  paid  till  decision  on  the  recommendations  of  Anomaly  Committee  is taken by the Government.
