Central Government Employees Group Insurance Scheme

The Central Government Employees Group Insurance Scheme is a program where a portion of an employee’s monthly contributions is credited to a Savings Fund that accrues interest. Upon entering government service, an employee must submit an application in Form No. 4 to their Head of Office, who will then issue a sanction for the payment of the subscriber’s accumulation in the Savings Fund along with interest. Once the employee retires, arrangements will be made for the disbursement of the accumulated funds. Payment for this Scheme is made according to the Table of Benefits issued by the Department of Expenditure, which considers interest accrued up to the date of cessation of service. In the event of the subscriber’s death, insurance cover benefits are available to their family members.

The Commission has received numerous representations from various stakeholders stating that the Monthly Deduction, as well as the Insurance Amount, has remained unchanged since 1990. In the present context, they are too low and should be increased.

Present Rate of AGIF

History of CGEGIS

The history of the Central Government Employees Group Insurance Scheme (CGEGIS) has been reviewed by the Commission, which has taken note of the Tables of Benefits published by the Ministry of Finance based on the mortality rate of 3.75 per thousand per annum up to 31.12.1987 and 3.60 per thousand per annum thereafter. However, the V CPC report published in January 1997 highlighted that the mortality rate, life expectancy, and health delivery systems have improved over time. Therefore, a detailed review of the current mortality rates to revise the apportionment between the Savings and Insurance Funds was recommended, along with a ratio of Savings Fund to Insurance Fund of 75:25 and appropriate machinery for periodical review of the mortality rates and adjustment of the apportionment ratio. Since then, all three factors have further improved over nearly twenty years. The Commission recommends an interim measure to modify the ratio of Savings Fund to Insurance Fund from 70:30 to 75:25 and undertake periodical reviews of mortality rates for suitable adjustment of the apportionment ratio. The Tables of Benefits may be modified accordingly.

Government Decision on CGEGIS

The decision of the government regarding the Central Government Employees Group Insurance Scheme (CGEGIS) does not align with the proposed recommendations. The recommendation emphasized the substantial insurance coverage for Central Government employees, ranging from Rs. 15 to 50 lakhs, but it was observed that the subscription rates were excessively high. In response, the government will be introducing a revised scheme for all groups, including a, b, and c groups, of Central Government employees promptly.
