Higher of the two pensions, below 10million will be exempt. 2nd one will be taxable.

Pension exempt, while Salary will be taxed.
This article contains very good analytical information and guidance for the Pensioners. The proposition has been well communicated to the readers with relevant legal provisions. I will recommend serving personnel, being a retired employee and now a legal practitioner, to seek professional advice from Taxationpk in case of need so as to avoid any complications later.
I am 57 and getting pension of Rs 61000 per month from armed forces but I am doing job an other educational institute and getting 103000 per month. Is there any impact of double dipping here?
when you get pension from the 2nd job as well then higher pension will become taxable.
as of now your single pension will be exempt and salary income will be taxed seperately.
If a person is 70 years of Age, Receives 3 pensions, one from Armed forces, one from EOBI and third from anothe rcompany.
But total of all is approximately 1000000 in a year. my questions are:
Is there any impact of double dipping here.

One of the three will be exempt while rest will be taxed at Salaried rate.

One pension is exempt from tax.
Yes, your pension is exempt. Your annual pension is approximately 2 million (lower than 10 million). Additionally, since your age exceeds 70 years, the 10M threshold doesn’t apply to you. In short, no tax on your pension.
