My self being retired Pettyofficer therefore I will take you through the example of Pettyofficer Basic Pension pre/post OROP and pre/post notional fixation of 7CPC.
You will find some real numbers which you may check independently from the PCDA website.

OROP was given vide PCDA circular 555 dated 04.02.2016 w.e.f 01.07.2014 to all pre 2014 retirees as one time mega enhancement of Basic pension of all veterans/family pensioners.
A total number of 101 tables were promulgated by PCDA/MOD for revision.
A total number of 101 tables were promulgated by PCDA/MOD for revision.
Table no 7 applies to JCO/ORs and as per table no 7 Pettyofficer GP 'Y' basic having 15 yrs qualifying service Basic pension increased to Rs 7550/- from whatever he was getting earlier.
Arrears from 01.07.14 paid to all pensioners by banks promptly under instructions of GOI.
Arrears from 01.07.14 paid to all pensioners by banks promptly under instructions of GOI.
As per 6 CPC the pension is 50% of the last emoluments of serving personnel.
Pension of all pre 2006 retirees who got pension as per 33 yrs pension formula revised as per PCDA cir 568 dated 13.1.2016. Pension delinked from 33 yrs QS formula and arrears w.e.f 01.01.2006 paid.

Now we have pension w.e.f 01.01.2006 as per 50% of last drawn as on 01.07.2014 i.e effective date of OROP with variations due to the base year and average tables.
Going forward GOI announced 7CPC as per PCDA circular 31.10.2016.
Going forward GOI announced 7CPC as per PCDA circular 31.10.2016.
Revision of pension done as per multiplication factor 2.57 suggested by 7CPC.
In this case the Petty officer basic arrived at Rs 19404/- (Rs 7550 *2.57).
Arrears are paid by banks as per instruction of GOI.

Arrears are paid by banks as per instruction of GOI.
Pettyofficers QS 15 Y, who are retiring post 2016 i.e 7CPC getting Basic pension Rs 22538/- therefore there exist a gap of Rs 3134/- ( 22538-19404) between our old veteran and young veteran.
Yes, there exist a gap and also next OROP revision due from 2019 therefore GOI again issued orders vide PCDA circular 608 dated 26.10.2018 for fixing pre 2016 i.e pre 7CPC retiree's pensions as per notional pay method of 7CPC.
As per notional pay method all pensioner irrespective of when they retired i.e 2nd/3rd/4th/5th/6th CPC will be given 50% pension of their 7CPC notional pay.
As per table 25 Pettyofficer QS 15 Y notional Basic pay in 7CPC arrived at Rs 38100 ( 6CPC Basic + GP = 14450/-)
As per table 25 Pettyofficer QS 15 Y notional Basic pay in 7CPC arrived at Rs 38100 ( 6CPC Basic + GP = 14450/-)
This is excluding 7CPC MSP and classification allownace i.e (Rs 5200 +If we add MSP Rs 5200/ and classification pay Rs 675/- the total notional pay arrived is Rs 43975/- and the pension at 50% arrived Rs 21987/- for our old veteran.
The difference is Rs 551/- (22538-21987)
The difference is Rs 551/- (22538-21987)
This is the maximum difference which is existing and acceptable due to huge revision of all veterans of all times through average table.
Now my question to all "Fuse bulbs" who rant OROP is not given is had the maga revision had not happened thia gap could be in thousands.

They must be thankful to @PMOIndia and @DefenceMinIndia and in particular great leader late shri Manhohar parikkar ji for implementation of timely OROP.
These small variation are bound to exist and due to Rs 500 odd gap I can't abuse the Government.

Basic Pension of pettyofficer increased from below Rs 7000 to Rs Rs 21987 (roughly) i.e 3 times then how can one be thankless.
It is also pertinent to mention that since MSP of officers increased from Rs 6000 to Rs 15500 this increase is more in their case.

Notional pay method ePPO in case of officers issued and arrears already paid by banks as per GOI instructions.
JCO/Ors ePPO work in progress on fast pace.
I am of the opinion that there exist small variation but on the eve of OROP rather abusing govt we should be thankful.

I may have different political opinion but on OROP I always thank our prime minister @narendramodi that he kept his words. He even did not differentiate VRS retirees in which catagory most officers come.
Widows, Pre 1970 retiree were getting meager pension before OROP.

Today after OROP they are getting respectable pension and at par the present retiree.
PCDA/MOD prepared tables from 2nd CPC to 7th CPC. All CPC have different recommendations, diffrent formula, matrix and pay scale so when we will make avg tables small variations are negligible.

Those who rant ORMP must introspect that we should request govt to make defence future ready and buy advance weapons for our soldiers. We served and our pension increased by mega revision, in future will be revised through CPCs therefore we must respect the revision.
The desires are always unlimited, my point is the veteran officers who are up-ante govt making hue and cry are taking pension in lakhs and if there is 1000-2000 difference from a person retire today "will the sky fall?" They must be happy that govt honestly bring down the parity.
I am happy with Rs 500/- variation in my pension vis a vis pettyofficer retiring today.
He must have faced more hardships/more pressure than me. Veterans must spread positive mesaage to youngsters always and should not indulge in comparison.

The data is purely illustrative.
The conclusion drawn is personal.
I am greatful to all who read this thread and request them to share this for busting the myth around OROP.
Yes, there is gap but it's not as big as projected.
Yes, Govt paid OROP and made sincere efforts.

Those who show rule book and defination may excuse.
Govt was not bound to include MSP in Pension calculation as it was allowance for hardship durinh service not upon retirement.
MSP is included in Basic pension created the huge gap between pre/post 2006 pensioners.

Govt not only reduced that with OROP but made sincere efforts to further reduce it through cir 568 and notional pay method.
I urge Jawans not to fall into the propogenda of abusing government over OROP.
My next thread on demand from readers can be illustration of COL's pension
