The censorship of the Barnier government is accompanied by rejection of the Social Security finance bill (PLFSS) 2025. In any case, this is good news for retirees, because there will no longer be under-indexation of their pension. In fact, from the start of 2025, Carsat policyholders will receive an increased pension. When and at what height? We reveal it to you in this article.
Retirees ultimately come out on top
The threat of under-indexation of pensions on January 1, 2025 ended with the censorship of the Barnier government. Furthermore, the executive planned to only increase pensions on July 1, a six-month postponement. Furthermore, the increase would only be 0,8 %as recalled Our Time.
Still, it's now ancient history. “Retirees would indeed be winners, if we can say that there are winners, because indeed (…) they would see their pensions indexed to inflation. »notably indicated Astrid Panosyan-BouvetMinister of Labor.
However, if retirees are the big winners, when will they get their jackpot ?

A revaluation planned for January 1, 2025
Despite the recent tensions surrounding the Social Security finance bill, retirees can breathe easy. Their pensions will indeed increaseas provided by law. In the absence of a legislative text modifying the rules in force, it is the Social Security Code which will apply.
According to INSEE calculations, inflation excluding tobacco, which serves as a basis, reached 2.2% between November 2023 and October 2022. This increase is higher than the government's initial forecasts. In fact, the executive planned an increase of 1.6% for the lowest-income retirees and 0.8% for others.
This revaluation more important than expected will have an impact on public finances. It should be remembered that the government had planned to make savings by limiting the increase in pensions. This planing blow was therefore expected to bring in more than 3 billion euros for the State.
Retirees: date and amount of payment
Even if this increase is good news for retirees, it may not be sustainable. In fact, the new government of François Bayrou will have full latitude to propose a new PLFSS including measures that could limit this increase. Particularly from a certain income threshold.
“It is possible at the legislative level, but we must be able to assume it politically. »underlines Alain Pariente, public finance specialist. In other words, such a scenario cannot be ruled out. Especially since the question of pension indexation has already brought down a government in the past.
