In 2011, there were two versions of what 'One Rank, One Pension' (OROP) in the defence services entails. One: two people who have served the same number of years and have retired at the same rank should get the same pension. Two: two retired persons of the same rank should get the same pension, irrespective of the number of years they served.
The two versions of OROP have different implications. The differences arise because people who retire get 50% of their last-drawn pay as pension, till the next pay commission recommendation is implemented. After the new recommendation, the same pensioner goes to the bottom of the new pay scale, while those in service continue to get increments in the new pay scale till retirement. Today, OROP is in operation for people of all ranks who retired on or before December 31, 2005.
