The Employees’ Provident Fund Organisation (EPFO) has released updated FAQs detailing the process for implementing higher pensions following the Supreme Court’s November 2022 ruling. The FAQs clarify aspects like document requirements, joint requests for higher pensions, and extended deadlines. The application for higher pensions will not be rejected if employees haven’t obtained permission, with the EPFO obtaining necessary details from employers. The pensionable salary calculation depends on the pension commencement date, varying before or after September 1, 2014. The EPFO emphasized adherence to existing income tax rules for TDS on arrears of pension paid to pensioners.
