8. Leave Salary Contribution
Rate of Leave Salary
Contribution
-
Three monthly rate of leave salary contribution in respect of
all classes of Government servants governed by the Central Civil Services
(Leave) Rules is 11% of pay drawn in foreign service.
-
If the foreign employer pays contributions, the percentage is
applied to the pay actually drawn in foreign service.
-
If the contributions are paid by the Government servant
himself, the percentage is applied to the net pay drawn during foreign
service. Net pay means the pay that would be left after meeting the pension
and leave salary contributions. In such cases, the percentage of leave salary
contribution is not applied directly on the actual pay drawn during foreign
service, but an element of compensation is taken into account for both the
contributions before the percentage for leave salary contribution is
calculated.
-
Three types of cases may arise and three different formulae
can be applied in such cases :
- Where pension contribution alone is paid by the
employee :
L = ( F - P )
x r / 100
- Where leave salary contribution alone is paid by the
employee:
L = F x r / ( 100 +
r )
- Where both the contributions are paid by the
employee:
L = ( F - P)
x r / ( 100 + r )
Where L is the leave salary
contribution,
F is the pay actually drawn in foreign
services,
P is the pension contribution, and
r
is the rate of leave salary contribution.
9. Pension Contribution
According to G.I., M.F., O.M. No. F. 8 (4)1E. III/82, dated
15-2-1984, pension contribution payable during the active period of foreign
service shall be based on the maximum of the pay as defined in FR 9 (11) plus
dearness pay appropriate to such maximum plus interim relief appropriate to such
maximum of the post held at the time of proceeding on foreign service or to
which he may receive proforma promotion while on foreign service.
Since D.A. equal to 50% of basic pay is treated as Dearness Pay
1-4-2004 and will be taken into account for retirement benefits, pension
contribution is to be worked out based on the maximum of the pay plus dearness
pay appropriate to such maximum.
