The gid id reports here is the group that's configured in your passwd
file.  The line will look like this:

testx:*:1001:1001:Test User:/home/testx:/bin/ksh
-------------^^^^

That's the GID right there.  A user always has a login group that's
configed in /etc/passwd.  If you don't want this group to be used,
don't put users in it (either in /etc/group as additional groups or in
/etc/passwd as the login group).
