The new OROP Pension Table Revised for Army Ex-Servicemen. Know who and how many will benefit, how much amount increased: The Modi government on 30th December 2022 approved a proposal to amend the provisions of ‘One Rank, One Pension’ for defence forces personnel and family pensioners. Ex-servicemen had been demanding this for a long time.
The ex-servicemen had also approached the Supreme Court regarding this. This benefit will be available to family pensioners as well as widows of soldiers martyred in war and disabled pensioners. Due to this, the burden on government funds will be ₹8450 crore per year. The new OROP Pension Table will be implemented from July 1, 2019.
Under this, arrears for the period from July 2019 to June 2022 will also be given to the beneficiaries, for which an amount of ₹23,638.07 crores will be given. This revised OROP Pension Table 2023 has brought a smile to many Indian Army Ex-Servicemen pensioners.
Revised OROP Pension Table for Army Ex-Servicemen Pensioners
Army personnel who have retired till June 30, 2019, will be covered under this amendment. However, those who have taken premature retirement will not be covered under this. See the New Indian Army Pension table for E.S.M:
Pension/Arrear Dues will be paid in four instalments
The dues will be paid in four half-yearly instalments. However, dues will be paid in one instalment to all family pensioners including recipients of special/liberalized family pensions and gallantry awardees. According to the statement, the estimated annual financial impact has been calculated at ₹8450.04 crore, which is a 31% inflation relief.
A total of 25 lakh pensioners will be benefitted from the monetary benefits. The scheme will benefit 25.13 lakh pensioners and family pensioners. This includes 4.52 lakh new pensioners. The decision was taken at a meeting of the Union Cabinet chaired by Prime Minister Narendra Modi. The revised pension scheme will be implemented in advance from July 1, 2019, the Defence Ministry said.

Accordingly, the scheme will be reviewed every 5 years.
Please let me know where is rank of subedar in OROP Ii. This rank has been abolished.
Subedar rank is not in orop table. I dont understand why this rank is deprive of orop benefits.
A jco ( nb sub/ sub)who serve for the country for more than 25 years, why their pension put in minues. What crime they have done if serve more than 25 years
I never thought that the officer, JCO and OR quarling regarding OROP. I hope that is the bed luck of india.
If this type of government policy continue evryone will be quarling.
Be it farmers, soldiers, shopkeeper
Accept few big businessman
Officers don't retire below rank of Col after 6th CPC. Hence, there is no difference in pension from Nb Sub to Hony Lt . As per table released, there is no hike of Basic Pay of these ranks unlike Officers.
OROP to be pay whose pension below one lakh. What is the necessary who draws pension above one lakh.
I do not understand one thing that whenever press conference to TV and print media or presentation given to PM or RM, our Officers are addressing as JAWAN to get sympathy of whole country men and get the job done whatever they want in favour of them but the moment Jawan ( ORs/JCOs) go to canteen , ECHS and other places, they make difference and address Jawans and officers.This is very funny thing.
Dear SK Dutta,
You are a mischievous fellow, trying to bring a division between officers and JCOs and OR.
How many presentations to the PM or RM have you attended?
In the Canteens and elsewhere , it is marked as Officders, JCOs and ORs. There is no such thing as a jawan as ranks are concerned in the Forces. Jawan is a generic Hindi word. So much for your professional knowledge. In any case how did you enter a canteen?
Guys like you are looking to somehow put down the Forces; you are obviously a lover.
The regular commission Capt pension has been brought at the level of 7 yr service which is unfair for those put in 22 yrs-30yrs service. It requires relook. If data is blank then the pay of the affected officers should be fixed notionally then pension decided.
No need to revise the pension of a officer, who already getting lakhs of rupees as pension per month……OROP should be given to Jawans that too upto Hawaldar ranks j below
Dear Venkatesh ji
Why and how do you
make a statement like this?
You should be more concerned about your case only, what others are getting according to their recruitment standards only.
Did any one stopped you entering NDA??
All Defence combetant members irrespective of service & the Ranks held/served till superannuation do not deserve any OROP at all. They are as it is covered under Central pay commission. DA also is given time to time so what are they crying for. It should only be considered for old pre matured Ex servicemen discharged under 40 yrs of age.
