Thank you for the overwhelming response to our first ever IIMCAA Group Health Insurance Plan.

As you may recollect, we had conducted a survey of interest for group insurance in March, 2022. We had received responses from 157 alumni who listed a total 387 persons including themselves and their family members. Average age of our alumni group based on the survey was 40 years, with the youngest alumni of 22 years and oldest of 55 years. 

After the announcement of the scheme and premium, we have received several queries that indicate that the average age of our group is going to change towards older people. Age is the main ground of premium calculation for companies when they assess risk of claims. Hence in the interest of everyone, IIMCAA Insurance Committee has decided to recall the 6,521 INR premium offer and introduce the slabbed premiums for different age brackets that will do justice to youngsters who would pay less and reasonable for olders who would pay more.

Must remember, if you buy health insurance individually, you pay more than any group insurance, additionally you undergo several tests while many diseases are covered after a defined period. Our Group Insurance scheme covers most pre-existing diseases from day one, without any waiting period.  

Alumni should calculate the premium on his/ her own based on his/ her age and age of spouse and children. Refer to the age and premium table below for calculation. Payment to IIMCAA should be made only after your calculation is confirmed by the Insurance Committee. Fill up your details in the Google Form and we will intimate to you the premium you would be required to pay. Further you will need to transfer that amount by NEFT to IIMCAA Account and inform us.

After the closure of the scheme, we will go back to TATA AIG with the final list. Depending on the number and other demography of our final list, TATA AIG will arrive at final premium amount, which may be higher or lower than the one they have offered now, depending on extent of variation in demographics of the final list from the original list.If TATA AIG premium is lower than the collected money, it will be notified to all participating alumni and a refund or an additional policy such as accidental coverage etc may be issued to them by our agent. Similarly, if TATA AIG fixes a higher premium than what we have collected, we will come back to participating alumni and seek additional funds to meet the shortfall.

Age (as on Dec 20, 2022)	Premium (INR)
90 Days to 25 Years	5400
26 – 35 Years	6200
36 – 45 Years	6700
46 – 55 Years	10000
56 – 65 Years	18000
66 – 75 Years	25000
76 – 90 Years	35000

All other details and dates of the IIMCAA Group Health Insurance Scheme communicated to you on 22nd November remain the same which you may read here. 

It is our first project of this type and scale. Hence we could not anticipate that the final participating alumni could be widely different than those who had expressed interest originally. Therefore we are constrained to revise the premium and put them in different age brackets, to be fair to one and all. We regret the inconvenience caused to you. 

Request you all to grab the opportunity to get covered with all pre existing illnesses without any waiting period. 

Let's Do It !

Dear IIMCians,

Annual general meeting (AGM) of The IIMC Alumni Association (IIMCAA) was held at IIMC HQ, New Delhi on 25th September, 2022. IIMCAA President Mr. Kalyan Ranjan presided over the meeting. Listed agenda was discussed at the AGM followed by the issues raised by members present at the AGM.

Minutes of the meeting:-

1. AGM approved the proposal to rename the National Council to Governing Council. Appropriate amendments in the constitution will be done accordingly.

2. AGM approved the proposal to insert a rule for central committee elections that a panel must have representation of at least 3 campuses and 3 courses. Appropriate amendments in the constitution will be done accordingly.

3. AGM approved the proposal to authorise the governing council to resolve disputes between the central committee and chapters/ sub chapters if such a situation arises. Appropriate amendments in the constitution will be done accordingly.

4. AGM discussed the proposal to open all IIMCAA Awards for non alumni professionals. Majority members opposed this proposal and based on the discussion, AGM approved to start one new award open for all journalists which was accepted by the members present at the meeting.

5. IIMCAA Member Mr. Krishna Pophale raised the issue of tenure for Chapter and Sub Chapters similar to the Central Committee. AGM discussed it and rejected it unanimously.

6. IIMCAA Member Mr. Krishna Pophale raised the issue of including alumni of other Indian states in the central committee and not limiting it for alumni residing in Delhi-NCR only. AGM discussed it and approved in principle to expand the ambit of the central committee without interfering with the constitution in any manner.

Thanks & Regards,
