About EPS Early Pension

Under the Employees' Pension Scheme (EPS), 1995, a member can start receiving a monthly pension at any time after reaching the age of 50 years. However, the pension amount is reduced by 4% for each year (or pro-rata) that the member starts receiving pension before the normal retirement age of 58. This is called Early Pension or Reduced Pension. This facility is especially useful for members who retire early due to VRS, health reasons, or personal choice.

📌 Key Points:
• Minimum age to claim early pension: 50 years.
• Reduction: 4% per year (or 0.33% per month) for each year before 58.
• Example: Pension at 55 is 88% of normal pension; at 50 is 68% of normal pension.
• You must have at least 10 years of service to qualify for any pension (early or normal).
• Early pension is payable for life, with family pension on death.
