Reg: Waiver of GST on Group Mediclaim policy premium.
Respected Madam,
At the outset we the Members of National Organisation of Insurance Pensioners thank you for the revolutionary changes made in GST rates and limiting them to just two categories. We welcome your decision to end gst on Individual life Insurance and Health Insurance policies. This decision will make health care more affordable and reach to wider section of people.
But by leaving out group Mediclaim policies from this benefit has dealt a serious blow to members of group Mediclaim policies, particularly senior citizens who are mostly members of employer sponsored Mediclaim policies.
We have been appealing for waiver of gst on Mediclaim insurance premium to lower the high cost of premium. In this era of high cost medical treatments waiver of gst will come as a great relief.
We therefore urge upon you to waive gst on premium of Group Mediclaim Policies and oblige. We hope you will consider our request favourably and bring smiles on the faces of thousands of people.
Thanking in great anticipation.
Yours Sincerely
Rajiv Kumar Sharma
General Secretary
