          The issue has been examined in consultation with Ministry of Finance, Department of Expenditure who has observed that the pay Commission’s intention was that the pensioner should exercise a conscious choice in view of the fact that the commutation table has changed w.e.f 01.01.2006. As such, in these cased, the Rule 10 of CSS (Commutation of Pension) Rules, 1981 may be followed and difference in commuted value be paid without fresh applications. The intention was not to deny the higher capitalized value on account of revision of pension.
