The Department of Expenditure, Ministry of Finance, has said that the retired central employees will receive cash payment and gratuity. The information for gratuity for January 2020 to June 2021 has been released.
The Finance Ministry has issued a memorandum in which it has mentioned the release of dearness allowance (DA) from 1 January 2020 to 30 June 2021.
Taking to Twitter, the Finance Ministry informed retired employees about the benefits they would receive. Notably, these benefits will be given to the employees who have retired during the period from January 2020 to June 2021
“Department of Expenditure has issued O.M. dated 07.09.2021 regarding calculation of Gratuity and Leave Encashment for Central Govt. employees, who retired during the period from January 2020 to June 2021,” Department of Pension & Pensioners’ Welfare tweeted.
