Contribution to Tier-I is mandatory for all Government servants joining Government service on or after 1-1-2004 (except the armed forces in the first stage), whereas Tier-II is optional and at the discretion of Government servants. • In Tier-I, a Government servant have to make a contribution of 10% of basic pay plus DA, which deducted from salary bill every month by the PAO concerned. The Government make an equal matching contribution. However, there is no contribution from the Government in respect of individuals who are not Government employees. • Tier-I contributions (and the investment returns) are kept in a non-with -drawable Pension Tier-I Account.

Government does not make any contribution to Tier-II account. • The existing provisions of Defined Benefit Pension and GPF are not available to the new recruits in the central Government service, i.e. to the Government servants joining Government service on or after 1-1-2004.
