What is the formula for calculating pension from epfo

Ans: EPS = Average Salary x Pensionable Service/70

(15000X35)÷70=7500
The average salary is the basic salary+DA(Max 15K) of the employee over a period of 60 months prior to retirement. Pensionable service is the total number of years worked(Max 35 years).

Thie minimum and maximum pension that you can receive through EPS is subject to limit of 1K to 7.5K per month

I require to calculate pension from EPFO. As per EPFO formula "=Average monthly salary of last 60 months x nos of years service/70 ". Max cap on Average salary is Rs 15000. I calculate the average monthly salary as "total of last 60 months salary / 60 "= 20000, which is kept at max. cap and considered as 15000 EPFO. While EPFO office first makes all salaries greater than 15k, to 15k, then calculates the average. Hence I get less than 15000. I did not find any clarification on the EPFO website. Please give me correct guideline as per EPFO

Ans: Hello;

There is pension calculator feature on the EPFO portal.

You may use to ascertain your likely monthly pension.

Best wishes;

Sir I am arushi I have got 96.21 percentile in jee mains and ews rank 8083 crl - 57404 home state up Will there are chances to get nit/ iiits Cse/ece/ electrical branch. Also how is production and industrial engineering at mnnit Allahabad . Minning engineering at nit rourkela or at nit surathkal is best. Integrated msc in mathematics at nit rourkela should i take it ?

Ans: Hello Arushi
(1) You might have a better chance of getting lower-tier NITs and several IIITs for branches like ECE or Electrical, but getting CSE in top NITs can be challenging. (2) Consider IIITs such as Nagpur, Pune, or other lower-tier IIITs for CSE. Production & Industrial Engineering at MNNIT Allahabad is strong. (3) Mining at Surathkal is generally regarded as better. The integrated MSc Mathematics at NIT Rourkela is academically valuable but has limited core placements, so choose it only if you’re interested in higher studies or research.

Good luck.
