Social pensions will be indexed in Russia in April
State Duma deputy Nikita Chaplin announced that social pensions in Russia will be indexed by 14.75% from April 2025.
According to him, the average payment by the end of the year will be 15,456 rubles.
Recall that an insurance pension is a lifelong monthly payment to citizens who have work experience and have reached a certain age specified by law.
A social pension is a payment from the federal budget addressed to disabled people, incapacitated citizens, and those who, for whatever reason, have not acquired the right to an insurance pension.
Russian Finance Minister Anton Siluanov previously stated that insurance pensions will be indexed to account for the inflation rate. At the same time, the government retains the right to additional indexation if inflation exceeds the projected values.
Head of the Social Fund of Russia Sergei Chirkov emphasized that more than 42 million citizens will receive pensions.
