UPS Calculator

What Is UPS Calculator?

The Unified Pension Scheme (UPS) is a retirement plan that merges different pension schemes to provide employees with a stable monthly income after retirement. A UPS calculator helps you estimate this pension by using details like your salary and years of service, making it easier to plan your post-retirement finances.

Formula For UPS Calculator

The formula for a UPS (Universal Pension Scheme) calculator usually works like this:

Monthly Pension = Pensionable Salary x Pensionable service / 70

where,

• Pensionable Salary = Average monthly salary (last 60 months, in most cases)
• Pensionable Service= Total years of service (maximum 35 years considered)

How Does  UPS Calculator Work?

You can see the predicted monthly pension amount using the UPS calculator. You can also view the family pension provided under the UPS to your family after your demise, which helps to secure your family’s financial situation. 

Example For UPS Calculation

Let’s consider examples to elucidate how the UPS calculator computes the monthly pension when employees have different years of service.

Example 1:

• Mr. A is a Central Government employee who retires after 25 years of service. 
• He had a basic pay of Rs.7.2 lakh p.a. before his retirement. 
• His average monthly basic pay will be 7,20,000/12 = Rs.60,000
• Since he has 25 years of service, his monthly pension will be 50% of his average monthly basic pay.
• Thus, his monthly pension will be 60,000 x 50/100 = Rs.30,000

Example 2:

• Mr. B is a Central Government employee who retires after 15 years of service. 
• He had a basic pay of Rs.4.8 lakh p.a. before his retirement. 
• His average monthly basic pay will be 4,80,000/12 = Rs.40,000
• Since he has 15 years of service, his monthly pension will be paid on a proportionate basis for 15 years.
• His monthly pension will be 40,000 x (50/100) x (15/25) = Rs.12,000
