Revised pension applies the fitment factor to your current basic pension, with DR reset to 0% (absorbed into the new basic pension). The fitment factor and the exact implementation date are undecided — only the DR rate and the reset mechanic are confirmed. Minimum pension is expected to rise from ₹9,000; the final figure depends on the approved fitment factor.
