Sequential index is occuring on vtiger_users table while it has primary key index on id.
Could anyone please tell me why?

From the list of indexes you also supplied it seems to me you very much want index scanning, the reason being that 4secs is too slow? The seqscan is not the reason for that - the main reason is that you process almost all rows of the crmentity table. I bet that if you add a LIMIT, or adding a clause that selects only for a specific vtiger_user, the plan looks different on the access to the crmentity table as well as the kind of join, however if your application really needs to process the 600k rows, I'm not sure if it can get any faster than that. Perhaps it would help a bit to shorten the SELECT * to only the attributes you really need.
