Pension
State Bank of India is proud to be associated with more than 44 lacs Pensioners and thank them for continued patronage. To cover the pensioners across the country, SBI has set up 18 Central Pension Processing Centers (CPPCs), where pension is processed electronically.
To avail pension through State Bank of India, the retiring employee can open account with any branch of State Bank of India, preferably with spouse and provide the account number to the Department from where, he/she is going to retire.
For opening account, Aadhaar number, PAN number, mobile number and email_id (if available) are basic requirements. Please visit https://bank.sbi/web/personal-banking/accounts/saving-account/savings-bank-account for more information.
In case the Pension Sanctioning Authority/Department has switched to issuing e-PPOs, pension will start automatically in most of the cases, as all formalities are completed digitally. In case printed PPO is issued, it is directly sent to the Centralized Pension Processing Center along with the undertaking and other related documents. Pensioner is no longer required to visit the pension paying Branch in normal circumstances.
The pensioner is required to submit his/ her life certificate and other undertakings, wherever required, in November (for the pensioners of age 80 years and above, October & November) every year for continuous pension payment. One may visit Jeevan Pramaan portal or for digital life certificate submission.https://bank.sbi/web/personal-banking/information-services/government-business/digital-life-certificate or jeevanpramaan.gov.in and Video Life Certificate through https://www.pensionseva.sbi
