How to Calculate Disability Pension in Armed Forces ?
This question is asked by many disable soldiers and officers who discharged or retired in Low Medical Category having disability attributable or aggravated by military service. Normally people misunderstood about on this subject how to calculate disability pension in armed forces.
People wrongly calculated the percentage of disability with their basic pay. The simple correct formula for calculation of disability pension is that individual will be entitled for disability pension @ 30 % of last basic pay for the 100 % disability.
For Example : If a soldier has 50 % disability then he will be entitled for 15 % of last basic pay.
If the Last Basic pay of the Soldier Rs. 30,000/- (including Military Service Pay) and discharged from service with 50 % disability attributable and aggravated by military service. The the amount of 15 % of his last basic pay is Rs. 4500/-.. His Service Pension is well known as 50 % of last basic pay i.e. Rs. 15,000/-
In view of above His total pension is calculated as 15,000 + 4500 = Rs. 19,500/- + DA (as applicable) .
It is necessary to mention here that after the death of soldier, disability pension will be stopped means his wife will not get disability pension after the death of soldier.
