Sirs,
I beg to put the following for your valuable guidance.
I joined the Central Govt. service on 18/04/1986 as a LDC and got promoted to UDC on completion of ten years.
After completing 11 yrs. I got myself transferred to a Central Autonomous/Statutory Body on tendering a technical resignation from the post and service on 04/10/1997 and joined as Junior most LDC .Now I am continuing in the Statutory service and I am due to retire in 2022.
In the mean time the parent ministry sent a cheque for my GPF accumulation drawn in my name which I got encashed in due time. I applied for transferring my pro-rata pension benefits and gratuity to my present employer. But nothing has been heard till date.
I would like to have your opinions on i) If I opt for the pro-rata pension and gratuity benefits, will the amount prove to be more beneficial in the long run? and
ii) Whether my service tenure in the Central Autonomous/Statutory body (i.e.from 07/10/1997 till 31/10/2022. excluding the event of my death before) which counts for 25 years is sufficient for eligibility of full pension or not.

first of all you have committed a mistake by withdrawal of GPF which you may have to deposit in new account after new deptt gets your pension contribution and leave salary from previous deptt.
You said you have applied for the same but nothing happened then why do you think that you will get it without going to CAT. You have no choice.

Is the Autonomous body you are presently working was covered by the same Provident Fund Scheme Pension Scheme when you had joined?

The statutory body,namely EPFO is governed by the CCS RULES and it has STATUTORY P.F. in place of GPF.

What do you mean by 'Statutory PF'?

Respected sir venu,
Statutory p.f. is analogous to GPF it is governed by the same rule and statute the central govt.'s GPF is dealt with.
