Telangana Pensioner EHCT Form: Self Submission & Download Guide

1. Introduction

Telangana pensioners no longer need to visit any office to submit or update their EHCT form. The entire process — entering pensioner and family details, uploading photos, and later previewing or downloading the form — can be done from home on the IFMIS portal. This guide walks through filling and submitting the form, and downloading it once submitted.

2. What is EHCT? (As Per G.O.Ms.No.186)

The Government of Telangana, through G.O.Ms.No.186 (Health, Medical & Family Welfare Department, dated 08.10.2023), ordered the implementation of the New Employees Health Scheme (EHS) by forming a separate, exclusive trust called the Employee Health Care Trust (EHCT). In simple words: EHCT is the Trust, and EHS is the health scheme that the Trust runs. To avail cashless treatment under this scheme, pensioners must submit their own and their family members' details to the government through this form.

Key Points of G.O.Ms.No.186

  • Separate Trust: The Employee Health Care Trust is headed by the Chief Secretary to Government.
  • Monthly contribution: Employees/pensioners contribute a specified amount each month, deducted by the DDO/PPO, matched equally by the Government.
  • Board of Trustees: Includes senior government officials, six employee representatives and two pensioner representatives, all nominated by the government, who make policy recommendations.
Please Note: G.O.Ms.No.186 does not mention the exact monthly contribution amount; it only says a "specified amount" will be deducted. Reports on the scheme put it at 1.5% of basic pay/basic pension, matched by the Government. Please confirm the exact figure in the latest guidelines on the official portal.

3. Documents & Photos You Need Ready

Keep the following ready before you open the form, so the process goes smoothly in one sitting:

4. How to Fill the EHCT Form on IFMIS (Step-by-Step)

Steps to fill EHCT form on IFMIS portal
  • Step 1 — Open the portal: Search "IFMIS Pension" on Google, or go directly to the official EHCT form page, and click the first official link.
  • Step 2 — Enter PPO ID: On the "Enter PPOID" box, type your PPO number carefully and click the green "Submit" button.
  • Step 3 — Verify OTP: An OTP will arrive on your registered mobile. Enter the 6-digit code and click "VERIFY OTP".
  • Step 4 — Check pensioner details: Your name, status, employee code, pension type and PPO ID appear by default. Click the profile icon to upload your passport-size photo.

5. How to Add Family Members

Scroll down to the "Employee Family Details" section and click "+ Add Family" for each dependent. For every family member, fill in:

  • Name: exactly as it appears on their Aadhaar card.
  • Relation: Wife, Husband, Son, Daughter, etc.
  • Gender & Date of Birth.
  • Occupation.
  • Aadhaar number (12 digits, entered carefully).
  • Is Dependent (Yes/No): for example, a homemaker spouse or a studying child counts as dependent; a child with their own job usually does not.

  • Photo upload via the "Browse" option.

Click SAVE after each member's details are filled, then repeat "+ Add Family" for the rest.

  • PPO ID, pensioner name and mobile number are correct.
  • Pension and address details are accurate.
  • Family member names have no spelling mistakes, and Aadhaar numbers and dates of birth are correct.
  • Blood group and dependency status are correctly selected for each member.
  • All photos are clear and within the file size limit.
  • All mandatory (red asterisk) fields are filled in.

7. How to Preview & Download Your Form

After successful submission, you can preview and save a copy of your form:

  • Log back in with your PPO ID and OTP, and open the EHCT Form section.
  • Click "Preview and Download the Form" to view and save it. Your personal details are shown safely for privacy.
  • If saving as PDF and the form spreads across two pages, open More Settings in the print window, adjust the Scale option until it fits on a single page, then save.

8. Common Errors and How to Fix Them

  • OTP not arriving: Usually a busy server or weak network. Wait a minute or two and request the OTP again.
  • Photo not uploading: Check that the file is strictly within 50–100 KB and in JPG/JPEG/PNG format.
  • Submit button not working / "enter name for row 1" keeps appearing: A mandatory field in the family details row (name, relation, etc.) is likely still blank or not registering — re-check every field in that row, including any that may look filled but weren't actually saved.
  • Website slow or login fails: Clear your browser cache, double-check your PPO number for typos or extra spaces, and try again with a stable internet connection.
