On April 30, 2026, the Karnataka High Court ruled that employees can get higher EPS 95 pension if they were in service as on September 1, 2014 and were members of EPS and also contributed to PF based on their actual wages through a joint option even though it was limited by wage ceiling caps.
The court made it clear that they did not address whether this ruling could extend to those who retired before September 1, 2014.
