Pension ambiguity - bridging the gap
Pension liability pegged at ~INR 330 bn; equivalent to 14% of networth January 10, 2011
There is lot of uncertainty regarding the quantum of obligation that banks will add
to its outstanding retirement liability along with the extent of provisioning for the
same due to Second Pension Option (SPO) and increased gratuity limits. Our in Nilesh Parikh

in some provision based on pension liability indicated by banks (refer table 1).

Employee costs to move up structurally +91-22-6623 3316
We believe PSBs’ cost structure will undergo a structural change with almost the suruchi.chaudhary@edelcap.com
entire workforce falling under the pension scheme now. The servicing costs of
pension is ~24% of basic pay (compared to 10% under CPF), implying a 3-4% Vivek Verma

structural in nature. Moreover, banks will be exposed to shortfall/surplus on
account of actuarial valuation for the entire workforce.
Gratuity bill to inch up post revision in benefit limits and wage hike
Effective 24 May 2010, the Gratuity Act, 1972, was amended, increasing the
ceiling on gratuity payable from INR 0.35 mn to INR 1 mn. While the impact of
increased limits on gratuity provisioning is difficult to calculate given different
bank specific policies, we have estimated incremental gratuity liability due to
wage hike and pegged the increase at 16% of outstanding gratuity obligation. We
estimate incremental provisioning on this count at INR 15 bn for the industry
(refer table 7).

There is a lot of ambiguity regarding the quantum of SPO liability for the banking
industry considering the whopping revision in estimates submitted by banks to RBI (as
per media reports) vis-à-vis those calculated at the time of the 9th bipartite settlement
(INR 63 bn revised to INR 200 bn). What further complicated the issue was varied
indications provided by banks on their estimated liability despite more or less similar
employee profile and actuarial assumptions.
SPO liability of INR 24 bn indicated by Union Bank of India during its Q2FY11 results, a
revision from INR 12 bn announced earlier, caused further concern on the profitability
and networth hit on banks. Our interactions with market participants suggest that Union
Bank’s estimated liability is conservative and includes the impact of catch up in obligation
of existing employees under the pension scheme due to wage revision/DA rise and
unwinding of interest as the provisioning will be allowed to be spread over a period of
five years. Our calculations also peg the bank’s SPO liability at INR 15.7 bn (INR 0.9 per
employee) implying that extrapolating Union Bank’s liability only to arrive at SPO
obligation for other banks will lead to over-estimation of SPO liability. At the same time,

we believe, the Street currently is underestimating the impact of high inflation and
structural change (with 100% of employees now being under pension) on banks’ wage
bill and retirement liability.
B. Employees’ contribution to the shortfall which was fixed at the time of 9th
bipartite settlement. Serving employees are to pay 2.8x the revised November
2007 pay and retired employees will get additional 56% of banks contribution to

C. The balance will be borne by banks, a variable element in the entire scheme of
things.

on an average. Thereby, banks’ incremental SPO liability will be pegged at INR 0.9

To arrive at the incremental liability for every employee likely to join a banks defined
benefit pension scheme we have built in a few assumptions which are as follows:
1. Average age: 52 yrs. The average age may appear to be on the higher side
since the average age of the entire banking staff stands at 48 years. However,
since employees who have been extended the SPO were on the bank’s pay roll
prior to September 1995, their average age is bound to be higher.
2. Average salary: November 2010 at ~INR 32k i.e., the combined sum of
basic salary and DA on it. The higher average wage is also explained by the fact
that comparatively senior employees at all cadres of bank employees have been
extended the option.

Key question that needs to be answered at this stage is what caused the quantum leap
in the liability to such high levels from INR 63 bn estimated at the time of settlement.
While the amount was based on 2007 salary levels i.e., before the wage hike, our
numbers fully incorporate the liability arrived at based on current salary. We attempt
to segregate the jump into three main heads, i.e., current service costs for each year
of service in between, impact of wage hike, and impact of DA during the period to
drive home the point that inflation has the biggest contribution to the wage bill jump.

Next, we estimate the number of employees per bank likely to opt for the option,
both serving and retired. The broad assumption is that more than 95% of banks’
existing eligible workforce under the contributory PF scheme and 70-75% of eligible
retirees are likely to opt for the option. Further, the number of eligible serving
employees is assumed at 50% of the workforce wherever the data is not available

Round one on the cost estimation of SPO began in 2007 when actuaries appointed
by the mutual consent of Indian Banks Association (IBA) and United Forum of Bank
Unions (UFBU) began the exercise. However, the data used then related to 2007 in
terms of salary levels and outstanding Provident fund balances of employees. Since
numbers were calculated on salaries before the 17.5% hike, the industry’s
incremental liability at INR 63 bn appears to be a gross under estimation agreed to
at the time of the joint note signed on 27th April 2010 vis-à-vis our estimate of INR
273 bn on account of SPO.
What is worth noting is that since employees’ contribution to shortfall is fixed, banks
may end up funding 94% of the shortfall vis-à-vis 70% agreed to during the
agreement. The only relief is the increased levels of PF refund in comparison to what
was estimated in 2007 due to the wage hike. We estimate PF/employee as 10% of
the basic salary that the employee is likely to have drawn in his/her past 27 years of
service since the average age has been assumed at 52 years and the employee is
assumed to have started work at the age of 25. The interest earned on the bank’s
contribution of this amount is also taken into consideration. As mentioned earlier,
employees’ average contribution towards the funding shortfall (SPO liability less PFC
contribution) has been fixed at INR 60k/employee during the settlement.

Another important development which impacts banks considerably and is not talked
about much is the jump in banks’ liability due to increase in pension obligation for
employees currently under the scheme due to the wage hike under 9th bipartite
agreement. PVO for pension disclosed in bank’s FY10 annual report is calculated based
on salary as of March 2010, without taking into effect the wage revision settled in July
2010. Hence, in

under the pension scheme. Our estimates peg incremental liability on this account at INR
59 bn (~INR 0.23 per employee), implying 16% rise on PVO disclosed in FY10.
The profile of employees already under the pension scheme is different from those who
are being extended the SPO now. Hence, we estimate the catch up on account of wage
hike for these employees with a different set of assumptions. Since all of them have
joined post 1995, i.e., when the defined benefit pension scheme had become mandatory
for PSBs, their average age and wages will be lower than the banks’ overall average and
significantly lower than employees under SPO. The other assumptions on wage
escalation, inflation and life expectancy, however, remain the same.

Gratuity bill to inch up post revision in benefit limits and wage hike
Effective 24 May 2010, the Gratuity Act, 1972, was amended, increasing the ceiling on
gratuity payable from INR 0.35 mn to INR 1 mn. In the current practice, gratuity
payment is based on the higher of the two amounts prescribed by the bank specific
gratuity rules and the Gratuity Act, 1972. Currently, on an average gratuity
liability/employee for PSBs stands at INR 0.2 mn. While the impact of increased limits on
gratuity provisioning is difficult to calculate given different bank specific policies, we have
estimated incremental liability due to wage hike and peg the increase at 16% of
outstanding gratuity obligation. The last wage hike saw a substantial rise in the basic pay
scale across all categories of bank employees. Since gratuity payout is linked to basic
pay at the time of retirement, the liability for the same has too jumped significantly. We
estimate incremental provision (pretax) on this count at INR 14.7 bn for the industry.

Accounting treatment
Incremental liability on all the three heads, i.e., SPO, catch up for existing pension
scheme employees, and increased gratuity limits falls under the nature of ‘past service
cost’ under both (Accounting Standard) AS 15 and (International Accounting Standard)
IAS19. Under both the standards, the cost needs to be immediately recognized in the
current year itself. There are not too many differences between the standards since AS-
15 (Revised 2005) was a step towards transition to IAS 19. A key benefit that banks will
have post the transition will be with respect to actuarial gains and losses. Actuarial gains
and losses primarily arise due to changes in assumptions used to arrive at retirement
benefit liability. While under AS-15, the gains or losses must be recognized in the Profit
& Loss account in the same year, IAS 19 allows corridor approach whereby the amount
can be spread over the expected remaining working lives of the then active employee
participants. This approach is suggested with a view that over a long term the actuarial
gains and losses may offset each other.

liability. In our assumptions we have considered tax benefit on the full liability which may
not be the case (restricted to 27% of the salary cost).
However, downward revision in earnings estimates will be pegged at 3-7% as Street has
factored in some provision based on pension liability indicated by banks (their internal
rough cut estimates). Banks also have absorption ability for incremental liability since
the impact of AS-15 transition liability hit will be absorbed fully by FY12.

• Salary payout: High inflation which further fuels the DA as a percentage of basic pay
directly increases the wage bill of banks periodically. To put things in context, since its
resetting in November 2002, DA moved from 5% of basic salary to only 19% over a
four year period. However, post this, high inflationary environment saw it rise to as
high as 72% in the next four years beginning 2007. Even post resetting after the
recent wage hike, it forms 46% of basic pay for three months ending January 2011.
• Wage hikes: The five yearly wage hikes take into consideration the inflation over
the past five years. High inflation leads to a higher than regular hike in the basic pay
scales of bank employees. Given the fact that basic pay is used in determining banks’
obligation towards employees’ retirement benefits, a more than regular hike in basic
pay scale has a multiplier effect.

Under the CPF, banks contribute 10% of employees’ basic pay to the provident fund
whereas under the pension scheme the contribution stands at approximately 24% of
basic pay. Also, under the defined benefit scheme banks need to make good for the
shortfall in the fair value of plan assets (FVPA) vis-à-vis present value of obligation
(PVO) as per actuarial calculations at the end of every financial year. The vectors which
drive the additional contribution and can throw occasional surprises are as follows:
• Employee life expectancy
• Inflation during the year and estimates going forward
• Wage escalation
• Wage hikes which happens every five years
• Attrition rates
• Expected return on plan assets
• Discount rates

If DA is revised only for one year (instead of structural change in CPI assumption), the

In our opinion with inflation yet to come to low levels and majority of staff under the
pension scheme, we expect cost/income ratio for banks to move up by 100-150% points
and RoEs to be adversely impacted by 40-60bps. Moreover, we believe banks’ downward
trajectory of opex/assets can see a turn as the cost escalation is structural in nature.

Background on the SPO
When the pension scheme was introduced for the banking industry as second retirement
benefit in lieu of Contributory Provident Fund (CPF) in 1993, existing employees were
given the choice to either shift to the pension scheme or to stay under the existing CPF.
Later, when Bank Employees' Pension Regulations, 1995, was introduced, it became
mandatory for all bank employees to be covered by the pension scheme.
However, many employees who were earlier extended the choice (between CPF and
pension) and opted in favour of CPF later understood the benefit of DA flowing into
pension and various other benefits under the defined benefit scheme and hence wanted
another chance to shift to the pension scheme. After years of tussle, the bipartite
settlement was inked between Workmen Unions and Officers’ Organisation on 27th April,
2010 to allow another option to those who were in the service of banks prior to 29th
September 1995 and did not opt for pension when offered. In lieu of this, United Forum
of Bank Unions (UFBU) had to agree to the implementation of the New Pension Scheme
(NPS) for bank employees joining post 1st April, 2010. NPS is a defined contribution
