Information given by the Department of Financial Services

The Department of Financial Services on Tuesday said that government employees can calculate their pension estimate using the Unified Pension Scheme (UPS) Calculator. The Department of Financial Services (DFS) under the Ministry wrote on social media platform ‘X’ that the NPS Trust has introduced the Unified Pension Scheme Calculator.

This calculator provides pension estimates to both NPS (National Pension System) and UPS customers. The department said that this calculator will help shareholders choose the right pension scheme after careful consideration.

Fixed pension will be available under UPS

Considering the demand of government employees, the government had decided to launch the Unified Pension Scheme (UPS). Under this, there is a provision to provide 50 percent of the average basic salary received in the 12 months before retirement as assured pension. PFRDA had said in a statement that the rules related to UPS have come into effect from April 1, 2025. Let us tell you that NPS was implemented on January 1, 2004. The Union Cabinet had approved the launch of UPS on August 24, 2024.

Under the old pension scheme (OPS) implemented before January 2004, employees used to get 50 per cent of their last basic salary of their tenure as pension. Unlike OPS, in UPS, employees have to contribute 10 per cent of their basic salary and dearness allowance, while the employer (Central Government) contribution will be 18.5 per cent. However, the final payout depends on the market returns on the fund, which is mostly invested in government bonds.
