    e.preventDefault();
    $(this).siblings('a.active').removeClass("active");
    $(this).addClass("active");

    var index = $(this).index();
    console.log('index = ', index);

    if (index == 3) {
      // console.log('index is 3');
      $("div.bhoechie-tab>div.bhoechie-tab-content").removeClass("active");
      $("div.bhoechie-tab>div.bhoechie-tab-content").eq(index).addClass("active");
      $('.map-control-cover').hide()
      $('.checkout-control-cover').show();
    } else {
      // console.log('i am here');

Since the anchors are inside list items, you need to get the index of the parent, not the anchor, and also process the siblings of the parent.

And your selector for the anchors is not correct. The anchors are not direct children of div.list-group.

$(document).ready(function() {
  $("div.bhoechie-tab-menu>div.list-group a").click(function(e) {
    e.preventDefault();

    var li = $(this).parent();

    li.siblings().find('a.active').removeClass("active");
    $(this).addClass("active");

    var index = li.index();

    if (index == 3) {
      // console.log('index is 3');
      $("div.bhoechie-tab>div.bhoechie-tab-content").removeClass("active");
      $("div.bhoechie-tab>div.bhoechie-tab-content").eq(index).addClass("active");
      $('.map-control-cover').hide()
      $('.checkout-control-cover').show();
    } else {
      // console.log('i am here');
      $("div.bhoechie-tab>div.bhoechie-tab-content").removeClass("active");
      $("div.bhoechie-tab>div.bhoechie-tab-content").eq(index).addClass("active");
      $('.map-control-cover').show()
      $('.checkout-control-cover').hide();
    }
  });
});
.active {
  background-color: red;
}
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<div class="col-lg-12 col-md-12 col-sm-12 bhoechie-tab-container">

Since your anchor tags are not siblings, but wrapped around li tag you are not getting the desired result.

So, you can either restructure you code to make them siblings, or you can refer to the target's parent with $(this).parent(), and then use .find('.active') to find any elements with active class and keep on using your same code.
