Pension Admin December 31, 2018

National Pension System to Old Pension Scheme

In Parliament on 28th December 2018, the Minister of State in the Ministry of Finance Shri Shiv Pratap Shukla said that there is no proposal to replace the National Pension System (NPS) with old pension scheme in respect of Central Government employees recruited on or after 01.01.2004.

The detailed report of Questions and Answers are given below for your information…

Lok Sabha Un Starred Question No.2954

(a) whether the Government is planning to reconsider the Old Pension Scheme on optional basis for Central Government Employees on heavy demand of employee associations across the country and if so, the details thereof;

(b) whether the Government has received any representation from various State Governments and employees’ associations in this regard and if so, the details thereof along with the other major changes demanded by the employee associations and the reaction of the Government thereon;

Representations have been received which inter alia also include the demand that the Government may revert to old defined benefit pension system. However, due to rising and unsustainable pension bill and competing claims on the fiscal, there is no proposal to replace the National Pension System (NPS) with old pension scheme in respect of Central Government employees recruited on or after 01.01.2004.

(c) Whether the Government has decided to raise the Government contribution in National Pension System (NPS) to 14 per cent from existing 10 per cent and if so, the details thereof along with the increased financial liabilities of the Government thereon;

Yes, the mandatory contribution by the Central Government for Tier I accounts of its employees covered under NPS has been enhanced from the existing 10% to 14%. The employees’ contribution rate would remain at the existing 10%. As informed by the Department of Expenditure, the impact on Government exchequer on account of enhancing the mandatory contribution by the Government for its employees covered under NPS from 10% to 14% is estimated to entail an additional financial impact of Rs. 2840 crores on Central Government in the next immediate financial year (2019 2020).

(d) The details of cases of family pension sanctioned so far to the families of deceased Central Government employees and the payment of compensation made for non-deposit or delayed deposit of contributions under the NPS;

Number of Family Pensioners getting pension through Central Pension Accounting Office (CPAO) by authorised Bank under National Pension System- Additional Relief (NPS-AR) as on 30.11.2018 is 4,779.

(e) whether the Government has decided to stop pension scheme to all the Government employees including Government/Public Undertakings organization, if so, the details thereof and the reasons therefor; and

The Government of India vide notification dated 22.12.2003 had introduced the National Pension System (NPS) (earlier known as New Pension Scheme) for its employees and made it mandatory for all new recruits of the Central Government (excluding armed forces) who joined service on or after 01.01.2004. The old defined benefit scheme was withdrawn by the Government for Central Government employees (excluding armed forces) joining service on or after 01.01.2004. There is no proposal to stop the pension scheme for Government employees.

(f) The amount/percentage of the budget consumed every year to pay pensions to employees serving in Government jobs in the country?

As informed by the Department of Expenditure, the details of Budget consumed during 2017-18 to pay pension to pensioners and Budget for financial year 2017-18 are as under:

Important instruction for Opening of account and subsequent deposit by other Bank Cheque in Finacle

finacle Admin December 29, 2018

This is regarding streamlining the transactions in office accounts 0382 (For opening of account and subsequent deposit by other Bank Cheque) and 0017 (CLEARING DR. A/C. OUTWARD CLEARING). This streamlining process is to resolve the below issues

1. 0017 office account is used both for outward clearing (by system) and subsequent deposits including RD agent transactions .

2. Several offices are not following cheque clearing process properly and debits for new account are made without proper credits resulting in huge debits in office account (0382).

New Procedure to be followed

1. Cheques for New account Opening and Subsequent deposits should be lodged in office account 0382 ONLY (For opening of account and subsequent deposit by other Bank Cheque); from 01/01/2019 onwards. Cheque lodging will be allowed only in 0382.

2. Office account 0017 will be accessed by SYSTEM only for cheque clearing operations wef 01/01/2019

3. Balances in office account 0382 should always be 0 or in credit. Validations are to be deployed for not allowing DEBITS in office account 0382 if the balance of the account is in DEBIT. As part of this activity, debit balances in this office account (0382) will be nullified to zero after 15/01/2019. Henceforth, debit from this office account cannot be done if sufficient balance is not available. Suitable instructions to be issued to POs for following cheque clearing process correctly to ensure that necessary credits are available in 0382 office accounts before debiting. Further, circles should ensure that reconciliation in 0382 office account is completed and debit balances are tallied against necessary cheque clearance and the same is accounted in daily account. This exercise should be completed by all circles. Discrepancies if any to be reported immediately.

4. Credits into 0382 will be only through cheque clearing and transfer could not be done from other office accounts. It is observed that some POs are debiting from other office accounts for crediting into 0382. Necessary validations are built to restrict credit from other office accounts and debit in this office account without credits.

5. As interim procedure, offices can continue to debit 0017 for a period of one week (till 07/01/2019), during which all cheques lodged in 0017 prior to above configuration changes will get cleared and credited into customer accounts.

6. Amount credited through clearing in office account 0382 upto 15/01/2019 should be utilised latest by 15/01/2019 itself, for account opening/subsequent deposits. Once the balance is made zero in the offices where 0382 is in debit balance, further debiting will not be allowed.

Configuration change along with deployment of patch

0017 office account will be restricted for debit: Only 0382 will be allowed as debit account in all the account opening menus and CRDP / CPDTM; 0017 office account cannot be debited from 08/01/2019.

Configuration change related to HAGTXP: This will be done for handling debit transactions through agent portal to 0382 office account instead of 0017 office account. [proposed to be done from 08/01/2019]. The cheques cleared in 0382 during the preceding week have to be kept pending for processing till 07/01/2019. Hence all the agent cheques which got cleared from 01/01/2019 to 07/01/2019 need to be kept pending for processing till 07/01/2019. Only from 08/01/2019, Cheque bulk list where credits are available in 0382 can be processed.

0382 office account can be used for account opening and subsequent deposits (except Agent bulk) from 01/01/2019 to 07/01/2019. Agent bulk list where cheques got cleared for the above period to be kept pending till 07/01/2019.

Exception handling: Any cheques lodged in 0017 upto 31/12/2018 and cleared after 07/01/2019, will be handled separately by allowing transfer between 0017 & 0382 for the specific SOLs . This will be done after receipt of mail from concerned circle CPCs. This process is only for clearing backlog cheques if any.

Following will be the status of accounts, on successful completion of the above configuration / operational changes:

0017 will be used for clearing operations only; this office account at SOs (non-clearing offices) will not be getting any transactions.

0382 will be either in credit or zero balance.

The balance amount transferred from 0017 to 0382 office account, will have supporting transactions in 0382 ledger which can be audited separately to check whether cheques for these amounts were cleared manually instead of processing through zone operations. A report will be provided to circles with details of office account and amount of debit cleared for reconciliation. Circles can use this report for reconciliation to ensure that debits have been accounted in their daily account/summary.

The debit transactions in 0017 other than clearing transactions, can be audited by circles separately to check whether cheques for these amounts were cleared manually instead of processing through zone operations.

Any clarification on the above may be referred to helpdesk.cbs@indiapost.gov.in

Income Tax के 6 नियमों में हुए बड़े बदलाव, 2019 में सेविंग ज्यादा आसान!

Income Tax Admin December 29, 2018

इनकम टैक्स के नियमों से वाकिफ होंगे तो टैक्स बचाना आसान होगा साथ ही समय पर रिटर्न फाइल करके आप जुर्माने से भी बच सकते हैं.आपको बता दें कि वित्तीय वर्ष 2018-19 में इनकम टैक्स के नियमों में कई बदलाव किए गए.

इस साल स्टैंडर्ड डिडक्शन को इनकम टैक्स में शामिल किया गया है. इनकम टैक्स के नियमों में 6 बड़े बदलाव हुए हैं जिसे आपको जानना बेहद जरूरी है. अगर आप नए नियमों से वाकिफ होंगे तो टैक्स बचाना आसान होगा साथ ही नियमों की अनदेखी भी नहीं होगी. आइए आपको बताते हैं कि 2018 में इनकम टैक्स के नियमों में क्या बदलाव हुए?

1. इनकम टैक्स रिटर्न में देरी पर जुर्माना- नए साल में टैक्स रिटर्न फाइल करने में देरी करने पर आपको जुर्माना भरना होगा. ये जुर्माना एक हजार रुपये से लेकर 10 हजार के बीच हो सकता है.

2. इनकम टैक्स रिटर्न में सुधार- अगर टैक्स रिटर्न भरने में किसी तरह की गलती हुई है तो उसे उसी फाइनेंशियल ईयर में सुधारना होगा. इसलिए, अगर आपने टैक्स रिटर्न फाइल में कोई गलती की है तो 31 मार्च 2019 से पहले उसे ठीक कर लें.

3. नेशनल पेंशन सिस्टम (NPS) में अहम बदलाव किए गए हैं. NPS विदड्रॉल को टैक्स फ्री कर दिया गया है. हालांकि इसके लिए जरूरी है कि बची हुई 40% राशि का इस्तेमाल पेंशन लेने के लिए किया जाए. पहले इस पर आंशिक तौर पर टैक्स लगता था.

4. स्टैंडर्ड डिडक्शन- इस साल सरकार ने एक बार फिर स्टैंडर्ड डिडक्शन की पेशकश की है. हालांकि इसके बदले मेडिकल खर्च और ट्रांसपोर्ट अलाउंस को हटा दिया गया है. अब आप टैक्स रिटर्न भरते समय 40000 रुपये के स्टैंडर्ड डिडक्शन का लाभ उठा सकते हैं.

5. सेस में बढ़ोतरी- आयकर पर सेस में इस साल 1% की वृद्धि की गई है. पहले 3% सेस लगता था, जबकि इस साल इसे बढ़ाकर 4% कर दिया गया है. सेस में हुई इस बढ़ोतरी से मिली राशि को शिक्षा और स्वास्थ्य के लिए खर्च किया जाएगा.

6. सीनियर सिटिजन को राहत- सीनियर सिटिजन को आयकर कानून की धारा 80टीटीबी के तहत ब्याज से होने वाली 50000 रुपये तक की आय पर टीडीएस नहीं देना होगा. अगर बैंक ने ये राशि काट ली हो तो रिटर्न फाइल करके इसे वापस पाया जा सकता है.

IPPB Admin December 29, 2018

Jharkhand and Chhattisgarh which got priority over others in account opening during first two financial years, however, lagged behind when compared to states with maximum accounts till date, the minister said presenting the state-wise data.

Whereas Jharkhand has 66,762 accounts, Chhattisgarh has 18,804 accounts as on December 24, 2018.

Bihar and Odisha top the list with 423,000 and 324,000 accounts respectively.

Shukla said IPPB has been launched with a vision to build the most accessible, affordable and trusted bank for the common man and with the intention of spearheading the financial inclusion agenda by removing barriers for the unbanked and under-banked population.

"IPPB leverages the vast network of DoP...it is offering a bouquet of product and services, such as savings and current accounts, remittances and money transfer, direct benefit transfer, bill and utility payment and enterprise and merchant payments," the minister said.

Sub: - Regarding delivery of letters under Pradhan Mantri, Jan ArogyaYojna (PMJAY) on Sunday.

Ref: - Dte. No. 59-01/2018-BD dated 21st October 2018.

Sir,

Your kind attention is invited towards Directorate letter no. as referred above under which orders have been issued to make delivery of the letters under Pradhan Mantri Jan AarogyaYojna (PMJAY) on Sunday.

In this connection we want to bring to your kind notice that now a days it has become the order of the day that on each and every Sunday officials are being engaged in various works like delivery of some important letters, some melas to achieve targets in various schemes, various meetings on new and premium schemes and other schemes of the Department. The officials of Department of Posts are now deprived from their basic right of availing weekly off.

Now the delivery of PMJAY letters has been entrusted to the staff which is very much causing troubles and sufferings to the employees.

It is also worth mentioning here that no off or any type of compensation is granted to the officials attending duty on Sunday and holiday. This shows apathetic attitude of the officers of Department.

Already Postal Employees are suffering a lot after implementation of CBS, CSI, IPPB, RICT, Aadhar, Passport, PNOP and other schemes.

It is therefore requested to kindly cause suitable instruction to all not to deprive the employees to avail their weekly offs and this practice should be ended.

With regards,

Yours sincerely,

(R. N. Parashar)
