What happens if someone leaves a central government autonomous organization without a pension, but with only EPF contributions? Will their gratuity and leave encashment be different? Also, if their organization doesn’t have a Voluntary Retirement Scheme (VRS), can they use the central government’s VRS scheme since they follow the same pay structure and commission?

If someone leaves a central government autonomous organization without a pension but with EPF contributions, their gratuity and leave encashment will be calculated based on the applicable rules for central government employees. They are not eligible for the central government’s VRS scheme as they are employed by an autonomous organization, even if they follow the same pay structure.
