PENSION REVISION CASE IN
HIGHT COURT NEW DELHI TODAY
PENSION REVISION CASE TODAY 27.11 STATUS:
Due to paucity of time our Pension Revision case has not been heard today... Next Date of Hearing: 11.12.2025
Dear Ma’am / Sir,
1. As you are aware, the matter was listed today for the Government of India to inform the Court about whether it is agreeable to grant revision of pension to combined service optee pensioners of BSNL by multiplication of existing pension by 2.57 as was done for Central Government employees by the 7th CPC.
2. When the matter was called out, the Government informed the Court that it cannot grant revision of pension by applying the multiplication factor of 2.57. The Government is adamant on its stand that till PRC recommends an increase in pay for BSNL, the Government of India shall not revise pension of retired employees of BSNL.
3. In view of the Government’s stand, the Court will have to finally hear the matter and pass a judgment either allowing or dismissing the writ petition. Since it has already heard the matter in part on the last date, it decided to keep the matter for hearing at the end of its board today.
4. Unfortunately, the matter couldn’t be taken up at the end of the board because of paucity of time. However, we mentioned the matter and the Court agreed to give a short date ie 11.12.2025.
Thursday, 20 November 2025
After the hearing in Delhi HC yesterday, we have sent the following message to our lawyer.
Pay of BSNL employees were revised from 1/1/2007 but pension of employees who retired between October 2000 and December 2006 was not revised which resulted in pension anomaly between pre-2007 and post -2007 retirees.
To undo this pension anomaly DoT issued OM on 15/3/2011 revising the pension of pre-2007 retirees with the same formula.
In accordance with DoT OM dated 20/7/2016, 100 percent liability of paying pension/family pension of absorbees lies with Government of India
Pension drawn as on 31/12/2015 may be multiplied by 2.57 factor from 1/1/2016.
To undo the anomaly in pension for those who retired after 1/1/2016, whose pay was not revised as per 3rd PRC, because of unviable financial conditions of BSNL and remain in 2nd PRC pay scales, after retirement, their pension shall also be multiplied by the same 2.57 factor.
