pensioners

French attention is turning to how pensions will be revalued in 2027. According to La Tribune, the government is expected to favour scrapping the 10% tax allowance on pension income rather than adjusting indexation rules, as ministers look for ways to fund or offset the revaluation. The debate matters for millions of retirees, since changes to the abattement would reduce net pension income for many households.

The Indian central government will pay salaries and pensions early, on September 25, ahead of an announced bank strike. The move is meant to ensure employees and pensioners receive their money before banking services are disrupted by the industrial action. Reports note the advance payment covers government staff and pensioners across the country, with banks expected to see reduced operations during the strike period.
