Units are aware that AIEBA has taken up the matter with the Finance Minister and the GST Council for exempting Mediclaim policy premium paid by the retirees from the purview of GST. The matter has been taken up with IBA who have also represented to the Government not to levy GST on the premium. Since the exemption can be given only by the GST Council, we had asked all our State Federations to contact the respective GST Council Members from their States to follow up the matter and to take up the issue in the next meeting of the GST Council. Today, in Chennai, we met Shri D. Jayakumar, Hon. Minister for Personnel & Administrative Reforms, Govt. of Tamilnadu who is the Member of GST Council representing Tamilnadu Government. We submitted a copy of our letter to Finance Minister and explained the issue in detail. He was appreciative of the reasonableness of our demand and assured to write to the GST Council to discuss the issue. He also assured to pursue the matter in the GST Council meeting. He suggested that we should meet other members of the GST Council in this regard so that the issue gets some momentum.

  • Request for Exemption GST on Premium on Group Medical Insurance Policy for Senior Citizens
    ALL INDIA BANK RETIREES’ FEDERATION (REGD) D/1/ Sector C Scheme No. 71 Indore 452009 E-Mail ID: [email protected] Since 1995 Mobile: 8966019488 Ref: aibrf_2021/ Dated: 17.05.2021 Smt Nirmala Sitharaman Honorable Finance Minister & Chairperson, GST Council of India NEW DELHI Respected Madam Re: Request for exemption GST on premium on Group Medical Insurance Policy for Senior Citizens. In the Banking sector, for the past about six years, a Group Medical Insurance Scheme is in operation both for the employees/officers who are in service, as well as for all the employees and officers who have retired from the Bank. The premium on the Group Medical insurance Policy for the in-service employee/ officers is being paid by the bank managements. In respect of retirees, the premium is annually paid by the concerned individual retiree. We wish to invite your kind attention on the fact that GST rate applicable on payment of premium for group insurance policy by retirees who are senior and super senior citizens is presently @18%. We feel it is on very higher side and unbearable for many sections of retirees/senior citizens in view of the following facts. a) Premium rates on health insurance have gone up many times in last 5/6 years for several reasons. In many cases premium rates on health insurance have gone up by 300 to 400%. Due to this factor, quantum wise, GST burden has also correspondingly gone up during this period. b) Large section of retirees/senior citizens does not have regular source of income and pension or other income is quite low.
