INSERT INTO sub_group (sub_group_name) VALUES
    ('Sundry Creditors'),

Answer 1

Note a table is an unordered set of rows. If result set ordering is required, you need an ORDER BY clauses.

Answer 2

If you look into the ID created, and compare your insert query order, it is created in the correct order. In your select query, the data is retrieved in the order of sub group name. Try execute the query to select the data in the order of id.

select * from sub_group order by id

Hope this helps.
