QFS CASE OF NARAYANAN NAIR

The calculations done by Shri S. Narayanan Nair are pucca. However, he may not rush to the Pension Department considering that three veterans have said that qualifying service would be 23 years when an employee has put in service of 22 years, 8 months and 29 days. More than six months service is taken as one year.
 
It is difficult to understand how the office calculated the QFS of Shri Nair as 22 years. They do not make such small silly mistakes - to put it jocularly!
 
Shri Nair by now must have gone through the Pension Rules. If not, he may go through to know more. He may like to recollect and confirm that (if), during his service of 22 plus years, he was not absent from service - on leave without salary- in one or more spells totalling 3 months. Also, he may see terms and conditions of his appointment. Any specific condition unlikely.

Shri Nair is one of the ex- servicemen who joined as Assistant and retired as AAO in October, 2013. He is also going to get his pension re- fixed as per latest pay scales of August, 2012. Congrats for both.
 
Shri Nair may be from military services. He may be a military pensioner. It is learnt that the GOI Notification for OROP is ready. It is only to be dated ( 13th,14th or 15th November, 2015 ) and signed.
