INTRODUCTION
India has two hundred years old tradition in Securities. Infact that first India
stock exchange established in Bombay is the oldest in Asia. The earliest security
dealings were Transactions in loan securities of East India Company, the dominant
institution of those days. Corporate Shares came into the picture by 1830‟s and
assumed significance with the Companies Act of 1956. In 1887 the broker community
gave birth to the “Native share and stock brokers Association” which is now known as
the Bombay Stock Exchange.
The Indian Capital grew at a very moderate rate from 1951 to 1980. However
it registered an impressive growth in 1980s. the process of liberalization and the
transparency in operation has raised the interest of foreign investors in India. Till
1978 there were only 8 recognized exchanges in India. Initially the exchange operated
on an outcry system i.e. manual system of trading Due to increase in the trading
volumes, the number of issuer increased substantially, and the birth of NSES highly
transparent automated system come into existence Even then there was an increase in
paper work causing a gridlock at every stage in the stock market This delays the
clearance and settlement of traders, registration of securities in the shareholder name
and due this it increased the back office paper work intermediaries These outdated
systems have increased settlement risks and have rendered the implementation of a
delivery of a versus payment system impossible. National Stock Exchange of India
Limited to provide electronic depository facilities for securities traded in the equity
and the debt market. NSDL commenced its operations in the year 1996 and is the first
depository in India.

INTRODUCTION
Dematerialization or "Demat" is a process whereby your securities like shares,
debentures etc, are converted into electronic data and stored in computers by a
Depository. Securities registered in your name are surrendered to depository
participant (DP) and these are sent to the respective companies who will cancel them
after "Dematerialization" and credit your depository account with the DP. The
securities on Dematerialization appear as balances in your depository account. These
balances are transferable like physical shares. If at a later date, you wish to have these
"Demat" securities converted back into paper certificates, the Depose Depository
functions like a securities bank, where the dematerialized physical securities are
traded and held in custody. This facilitates faster, risk free and low cost settlement.
In order to dematerialize certificates; an investor will have to first open an
account with a DP & then request for the dematerialization of certificate by filling up
a dematerialization request form (DRF), which is available with DP & submitting the
same along with the physical certificates. The investor has to ensure that before the
certificate are handled over to the DP For demat, they are defaced by marking
“Surrendered for dematerialisation” on the face of the certificates. Depository is
much like a bank and perform many activities that are similar to a bank.
Just as one opens a bank account in order to avail of the services of a bank, an
investor opens a depository account with a depository participant in order to avail of
depository facilities.
17. A Study of Respondent Satisfaction towards Depository Participants at Karvy

Following table compares the two.
Bank Depository
Holds funds in accounts Holds securities in account
Transfers funds between accounts Transfers securities between accounts
Transfers without handling money Transfers without handling securities
Safekeeping of money Safekeeping of securities
Transacting the depository way has several advantages over the traditional system
of transacting using share certificates. Some of the benefits are:
Trading in demat segment completely eliminates the risk of bad deliveries,
which in turn eliminates all cost and wastage of time associated with follow up
for rectification. This reduction in risk associated with bad delivery has lead to
reduction in brokerage to the extent of 0.5% by quite a few brokerage firms.
In case of transfer of electronic shares, you save 0.5% in stamp duty.
You also avoid the cost of courier/ notarization/ the need for further follow-up
with your broker for shares returned for company objection
In case the certificates are lost in transit or when the share certificates become
mutilated or misplaced, to obtain duplicate certificates, you may have to spend
at least Rs500 for indemnity bond, newspaper advertisement etc, which can be
completely eliminated in the demat form.
You can also receive your bonuses and rights into your depository account as
a direct credit, thus eliminating risk of loss in transit.
You can also expect a lower interest charge for loans taken against demat
shares as compared to the interest for loan against physical shares. This could
18. A Study of Respondent Satisfaction towards Depository Participants at Karvy
Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com Page 18
result in a saving of about 0.25% to 1.5%. Some banks have already
announced this.
RBI has increased the limit of loans against dematerialized securities as
collateral to Rs2mn per borrower as against Rs1mn per borrower in case of
loans against physical securities.
RBI has also reduced the minimum margin to 25% for loans against
dematerialized securities as against 50% for loans against physical securities.
In short the advantages of opening a demat account are
Shorter settlements thereby enhancing liquidity
No stamp duties on transfer of securities held in demat form.
Elimination of risk associated with physical certificated such as bad delivery,
fake securities.
Reduction in handling large volume of paper;
Nomination facility
Transmission of securities (such as shares, debentures, bonds and units) is
done by DP eliminating the need to correspond with each company separately.
Change of name, address, dividend mandate, registration of power of attorney,
transmission etc. can be effected across companies held in demat form by a
single instruction to the DP
Though under the Depositories Act, 1996, there is no compulsion and the
investor can hold shares either in physical or in dematerialized form. But according to
Sebi‟s directive certain shares have to be traded compulsorily in dematerialized form
where the seller cannot sell in physical form. However, after he has bought the shares
the investor can ask for rematerialization of the shares.
19. A Study of Respondent Satisfaction towards Depository Participants at Karvy
Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com Page 19
The Depository Account must be opened with a Depository Participant. NSDL
interfaces with investor trough Depository Participants (DPS). A list of names and
addresses of all Authorized DP‟s is available with the NSDL and CDSL and one can
meet any of these DP‟s place and make a choice at your based on your comfort and
convenience. Opening a depository account is as simple as opening a bank account.
One can open a depository account with any DP.
To open a Depository Account, you have to submit the duly filled in Account
Opening form along with the following documents:
Fill up the account opening form, which is available with the DP.
Residential Proof - Copy of Ration Card, Passport, Driving License,
Telephone Bill, Electricity Bill or Rental Agreement.
Sign the DP-client agreement, which defines the rights and duties of the DP
and the person wishing to open the account.
Receive your client account number (client ID).
This client ID along with your DP ID gives you a unique identification in the
depository system.
There is no restriction on the number of depository accounts a person can
open. However, if your existing physical shares are in joint names, you have to open
the account in the same order of names before you submit your share certificates for
demat. A sole holder of the share certificates cannot add more names as joint holders
at the time of dematerializing his share certificates.
However, if the investor wants to transfer the ownership from his individual
name to a joint name, he should first open an account as the sole holder (account A)
20. A Study of Respondent Satisfaction towards Depository Participants at Karvy
Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com Page 20
and dematerialize the share certificates. He should then open another depository
account (account B) in which he is the first holder and the other person is the second
holder and make an off market transfer of the shares from the account A to account B.
The investor will incur a charge on this transaction. Alternatively, the certificates can
be transferred to the joint ownership and then sent for Dematerialization.
Right now, as per the Companies Act, there is no nomination facility for
shares (whether in the physical or in the electronic form). The nomination facility for
shares can be availed of only when the relevant provisions in the Companies Act are
amended. NSDL captures the details of the nominee when the account is opened so as
to offer the facility as soon as the relevant amendments are effected in the Law.
A client can choose to open more than one account with same DP. In addition
to this, he has a choice of opening accounts with more than one DP. However a broker
can open just one Clearing Member account per card/ stock exchange for clearing
purpose, but he can still open multiple beneficiary accounts Beneficiary is the
personal account wherein brokers can keep their personal holdings.
Account opening
Any investor who wishes to avail depository services must first open an
account with a depository participant of NSDL The process of opening a Demat
account is very similar to a bank account The investor can open an account with any
depository participant of NSDL An investor may open an account with several DPs or
he may open several account with single There are several DPs offering various
depositary related services. Each DP is free to fix its own fee structure Investors have
the freedom to choose a DP based on criteria like convenience , comfort has to enter
21. A Study of Respondent Satisfaction towards Depository Participants at Karvy
Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com Page 21
into an agreement with the DP The form and contents of this agreement are specified
by the business rules of NSLD
Types of depositary account depends on the operation to be performed There are
three types of Demat accounts which can be opened with a depositary participant viz
(a) Beneficiary Account (b) Clearing member Accounts and (c) intermediary account
Types of accounts
Beneficial owner Clearing member Intermediary
Account Account Account
House Non-House
A DP may be required to open three categories of accounts for client –
beneficiary account, clearing member account and intermediary account
A beneficiary account is an ownership account The holder/s of securities in
this type of account own those securities
The clearing member account and intermediary account are transitory account
The securities in these are held for commercial purpose only
A clearing member account is opened by a broker or a clearing member for the
purpose of settlement of trades
An intermediary account can opened by a SEBI registered intermediary for the
purpose of stock leading and borrowing
22. A Study of Respondent Satisfaction towards Depository Participants at Karvy
Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com Page 22
BENEFICIARY ACCOUNT
This is an account opened by investor to hold their securities in
dematerialized from with a depository and to carry out the transactions of sale
purchase of such securities in book entry form through the depositary system A
beneficiary account holder is legally entitled for all rights and liabilities attached to
the securities held in that account Therefore, the account is called “beneficial owner
account” a beneficial account can be in the name of individual, corporate, HUF,
minor, bank, financial institution , trust etc or the broker himself for the purpose of his
personal investments in demat form . The account is opened with a DP
House account vs. non –house account opened by a DP for the custody of
and transactions in its own investment is referred to as a house account DPS Are
required to open house accounts for their own investments to prevent co-mingling of
asset with that of their clients
Neither the depositories ACT nor the regulations made under the act lay
down any specifications about who can open a beneficiary account since all beneficial
owners are deemed to be member of a company (under section 41 (3) of the
companies act) only those who are eligible to become members of a company act can
open a beneficiary account with a depository Thus all legal entities with the exception
of partnership firms can open an account in the depository system

to submit the following documents along with the prescribed account opening form

verification within the foreside period of 30 days, it must be immediately brought to
the notice of NSDL Failure to produce the original within the prescribed time would
invite appropriate action against such account holder, which could even include
freezing of their accounts

PROCEDURE TO OPEN A CLEARING MEMBER ACCOUNT
The steps undertaken to open the account are same as those of the individuals,
difference lies in the type of the clearing members has to first register itself with the
depository and obtain a business partner identification number (CM-BP-ID). The
clearing member is identified by the combination of CC-CM-ID given by the DP.
Immediately after opening a clearing account, the DP should inform the
depository the details of clearing members name, CM-BP-ID, client-ID, and date of
the opening the account in DPM system.
The clearing account should only be for clearing and settlement purpose and
nit for any other purpose, e.g., holding of securities received in a settlement received
in a settlement account should be transferred to the transferred to respective beneficial
accounts as soon as possible, but in no case later than the time prescribed by the
depository/ stock exchange/ SEBI in this regard. The opening of clearing members
account constitutes a “standing instruction” to receive credits from the clearing
corporation when there is a pay-out.
The Clearing House deals with ONLY ONE designated account for pay-in
and pay-out with the Broker. This single account allows you to know to which
account securities must be delivered and received from. One Clearing Member Pool
Account is opened per card / Stock Exchange to settle trades in the Dematerialised
form.
Structure Of Clearing Account
The clearing account is identified in the depository system by its CM-BP-ID.
The internal structure of the Clearing Account consists of three parts to facilitate easy
book keeping.

a) Pool Account: It has two roles in clearing of Securities, viz., before pay-in, the
selling client of the clearing member transfers securities from his client Account
to the Clearing Account. After receiving pay-out, the clearing member transfers
securities from his Clearing Account to the account of the buying client.
b) Delivery Account: The securities before pay-in, the securities move from the
Pool Account To the Delivery Account. The movement will be automatic if
clearing member has given such an undertaking to its Clearing If the Clearing
Corporation. It will be effected on the basis of instruction received from the
Clearing house/ Clearing Corporation. If the clearing house/ Clearing Corporation
has not taken such undertaking, the clearing member to its DP must submit a
delivery instruction form. At the time of pay-in, NSDL flushes out the securities
in the Delivery Account & transfers the same to the Clearing house/ Clearing
Corporation.

c) Receipt Account: On pay-out day, the Clearing house/ Clearing Corporation
transfers securities to the Pool Account (to The extent of net receipt) through the
Receipt Account. This account can be used to trace details of settlement-wise
receipt of the clearing member.
Market Type & Settlements Number: A clearing account can be broken into
compartment and sub-compartments. Each compartment can be called as market type
and be as settlement number. Hence, if securities are moved from any clearing
account, apart from the CM-BP-ID, the combination of market type and settlement

Settlement calendar: Settlement calendar is decided by the stock exchange. It
contains details for each market type & settlement number. The detail for each
settlement consists of the date of trading, pay-in time, pay-out date, settlement
number etc. Clearing member can obtain the settlement calendar from its own stock
exchange. This is also available in the depository software of the DP.
MARKET TRANSFERS: Any trade, which is cleared & settled by the clearing
house/ Clearing Corporation of the stock exchange, is considered as a market trade in
the depository. Consequently, the transfers routed through the clearing account.

A selling client of a clearing member (broker) would transfer securities from
his beneficial owner account to the clearing account of the clearing member for
onwards delivery to the clearing house/clearing corporation. This transfer is effected
by his DP on the basis of a delivery instruction provided by the selling client. A

OFF MARKET TRANSFERS: Any trade, which is not cleared and settled by
the clearing house/clearing corporation of the stock exchange, is considered as an off-
market trade in the depository. Consequently, the transfer is not routed through the
clearing account. Such transfers take place directly between two beneficiary accounts.

DPs. The buyer and seller will trade amongst themselves and later on will exchange
money, i.e., settle funds amongst themselves. The selling client would deliver
securities from its beneficiary account to the beneficiary account of the buying client.

Depository:
A Depository is a Company where the shares of an individual are held in the
electronic form, at the request of the shareholder. This eliminates the physical form of
holding. IDBI, UTI, SBI and NSE promoted the National Securities Depository
Limited (NSDL). The Central Securities Depository Limited (CDSL) was promoted
by BSE.
Your money may be held in the form of liquid cash at your home or may be
deposited in a bank. The bank holds your funds in the electronic form and
subsequently debits or credits the account. Depending on your issuance of cheques or
deposit of cheques. The advantages of safety and convenience of dealing with a Bank
overweigh the reasons for holding liquid cash in your home. Your financial assets
such as Equity Shares may be compared to the above example. You may hold
physical share certificates in your home and be exposed to the various risks of lack of
safety, mutilation, loss etc. Alternatively, you may deposit your shares in an
organization called a Depository, which holds your shares in the electronic form. You
can dematerialize shares of only those companies that have signed agreement to
dematerialize their shares with the depository. You cannot dematerialize shares if they
are not in your name, i.e. shares held in street name (market deliveries) cannot be
dematerialized. However, when you send shares to the registrar to be transferred to
your name you can request that you want those shares in dematerialized form.

In India depositories are required to be registered with SEBI and are governed
by the provision of the Depositories Act, 1996 and regulation and bylaws framed for
depositories by the SEBI.
The depositories work in a completely computerized environment with
electronic linkages with the point of origination for the transactions that may cause
the change in ownership of securities. A depository will be electrically linked with
the Register of the members maintained by the company/registrar, clearing and
settlement system in the stock exchanges, stock lending organization (if in existence),
custodians of securities, depository participants and brokers.
Function of Depository
Dematerlisation: one of the primary functions of depository is to eliminate or
minimize the movement of the physical securities in the market. This is achieved
through dematerialisation of securities. Dematerlisation is the process of converting
securities held in physical form into holdings in book entry form.
Account Transfer: The depository gives effect to all transfers resulting from the
settlement of trade and other transactions between various beneficial owners by
recording entries in the accounts of such beneficial owners.
Transfer and Registration: A transfer is the legal change of ownership of a security
in the records of the issuer. For effecting a transfer, certain legal steps have to be
taken like endorsement, execution of a transfer of security occurs merely by passing
36. A Study of Respondent Satisfaction towards Depository Participants at Karvy
Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com Page 36
book entries in the records of the depositories, on the instructions of the beneficial
owners.
Corporate Actions: A depository may handle corporate actions in two ways. In the
first case, it merely provides information to the issuer about the persons entitled to
receive corporate benefits. In the other case, depository itself takes the responsibility
of distribution of corporate benefits.
Pledge and hypothecation: Depositories allow the securities placed with them to
be used as collateral securities in physical form to the lender or its custodian. These
securities are verified for authenticity and often need to be transferred in the name of
lender. This has a time and money cost by way of transfer fees or stamp duty. If the
borrower wants to substitute the Pledging/Hypothecating the securities makes the
process very simple and collateral accounting through book entries in the records of
the depository.
Linkage with clearing system: whether it is a separating clearing corporation
attached to a stock exchange or a clearing house (department) of a stock exchange, the
clearing system performs the function of ascertaining the pay-in (sell) or pay-out
(buy) of brokers who have traded on the stock exchange. Actual delivery of securities
to the clearing system from the selling and delivery of securities from the clearing
system to the buying broker is done by the depository. To achieve this, depositories
and the clearing system should be electronically linked.

Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com Page 37
Depository Participant:
Depository Participant (DP) is an organisation that acts as an Agent of the
Depository and interacts with the investor. A DP is responsible for maintaining your
securities account and operating it only under your written instructions. The
Depositories Acts mandates that investors can use Depository facilities only through
DP‟s. The distribution channel and geographical spread of the DP‟s offices allows
you to access the Depository at a low cost. DP can only access their own clients'
information. They cannot access the client information of any other DP. The
information of your holdings in the account is completely confidential& it is similar
to your account balance in a bank.
You can select your DP to open a demat account just like you select a bank for
opening a savings account. Some of the important factors for selection of a DP can be:
1. Convenience - Proximity to your office/residence, business hours.
2. Comfort - Reputation of the DP, past association with the organisation,
whether the DP is in a position to give the specific service you may need?
3. Cost - The service charges levied by DP and the service standards.
Individual accounts can be opened by Ordinary Resident, HUF, NRI
Repatriable and NRI Non-Repatriable. Body Corporate, Banks, Trusts, Financial
Institutions, Foreign Institutional Investors, and Overseas Commercial Banks etc can
open corporate Accounts. An account can be opened in the name of HUF in a similar
way to individual account and mentioning the account category as HUF. However,
Kartha of HUF will sign the application, agreement and all transactions under the
account
38. A Study of Respondent Satisfaction towards Depository Participants at Karvy
Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com Page 38
An account cannot be opened in the name of the firm. It has to be opened in
the name of any of the Partner as an Individual account only.
Procedure for Dematerialisation
Dematerialisation Process:

Steps:
1. Client/ investor submits the DRF (Demat Request Form) and Physical
certificates to DP. DP checks whether the securities are available for demat.
Client defaces the certificates by stamping „Surrender for Dematerlisation‟.
DP punches two holes on the name of the company and draws two parallel
lines across the face of the certificate.
2. DP enters the demat request in his system to be sent to NSDL. DP dispatches
the physical certificates along with the DRF to the R & T Agent.
3. NSDL records the details of the electronic request in the system and forwards
the request to the R&T Agent.
4. R&T Agent, on receiving the physical documents and the electronic request,
verifies and checks them. Once the R&T Agent is satisfied, Dematerialisation
of the concerned securities is electronically confirmed to NSDL.

5. NSDL credits the dematerialized securities to the beneficiary account of the
investor and intimates the DP electronically. The DP issues a statement of
transaction to the client.
a. DPs provide Dematerlisation request forms (DRF) to their clients.
b. The client completes the DRF in all respect 7 submits to the DP along with the
security certificates to be dematerialized.
c. The DP checks the DRF for validity, completeness and correctness. The
following points should be checked particularly:
The security certificate sought to be dematerialized are attached to DRF.
The attached security certificates are marked (defaced) with the words
„surrendered for dematerialisation‟. This is a precautionary measure to
prevent misuse of share certificates by anyone.
The certificate are not mutilated or defaced in a manner affecting any
material information.
The name of client on DRF and the certificates is exactly the same as in
the client‟s account in DPM. However, minor variations in the name (like
abbreviated name, initials in the place of first name, middle name, minor
name mistake in the name) may be permitted if it can be reasonably
established that both names are of the same person. The permitted
variations refer to initials not being spelt out fully or put prior to after the
surname. In such cases, if the signature on the DRF matches the specimen
signature available with the DP, the securities can be considered for demat.
Details like security type, face value, paid-up value, pari passu status,
certificate numbers, distinctive numbers, number of certificates, total
quantity of securities and lock-in statues are filled-in correctly.
40. A Study of Respondent Satisfaction towards Depository Participants at Karvy
Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com Page 40
d. If the DRF & the accompanying security certificates are found in order, the
DP should accept the DRF and certificates.
e. If DRF and the accompanying security certificates are not found in order, the
DP should return the DRF and certificates.
f. The DP should enter the dematerialisation request in the DPM. DPM generates
a request number (DRN), which should be mentioned on DRF.
g. An authorized person, other than one who entered the DRF details in the
DPM, should verify the details of DRN and release a request to NSDL.
h. Once the DP has received the certificates defaced by investor, the DP punches
two holes on the name of the issuer or its R&T Agent for dematerialisation.
DRF and enclosures have to be sent at the “address to which physical
certificate to be sent” communicated by NSDL. The forwarding letter should
refer to the allotted DRN and should refer to the allotted DRN and should Be
sent within seven days of accepting it from the client.
i. The issuer or its R&T Agent verify the DRF & the accompanying certificate
for validity, completeness and correctness. They also match the details with
the intimation received from NSDL against the same DRN.
j. In case DRF is not found in order, the issuer or its R&T Agent send an
objection memo to the DP, with or without DRF & security certificates
depending upon the reason for rejection.
k. DRFs & Certificate are sent back on the following grounds:
DRN does not match with message from DM
Quantity of actual securities is less than DRF
Quantity of actual securities is more than DRF
41. A Study of Respondent Satisfaction towards Depository Participants at Karvy
Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com Page 41
l. DRF & certificate are not sent back:
If the certificate is fake
If the certificate has been reported to be stolen
If the duplicates of the original certificates sent for demat have already
been issued
If the endorsements are forged
If the securities are not in the name of the account holder as per DRF
If the details of the certificates do not pertain to the R&T Agent
If the signatures differ
If there is any court order on the securities
If the certificate are received after 15 days of the electronic request.
m. The DP informs the client accordingly & requests removal of reasons for
objection. The DP removes these or provides additional information to the
issuer or its R & T Agent within 15days of receiving the objection memo.
n. The DP, if the client so requires, may generate a new dematerialisation request
& send the securities again to the issuer or R &T Agent.
Precaution to be taken while processing DRF
Ensure account to have the same sequence of names of holders and name
structure as printed on the physical certificate.
Ensure ISIN is activated
Separate DRF for:
Partly & fully paid-up shares
Locked & free holding
Holdings locked in for different reasons
Locked in holdings having different release date
Different ISINs of the company
42. A Study of Respondent Satisfaction towards Depository Participants at Karvy
Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com Page 42
ISIN to be entered by DP.
All joint holders to sign DRF.
Check DRF form with details on certificate.
DEMAT PROCESS
The demat process requires defacing of securities which will make the security
certificate undeliverable unless the demat formalities are completed. Therefore, the
client should be assisted in ascertaining whether the securities in question are
available for demineralisation. Clients should be helped in filling up the demat request
properly. Demat rejection causes great inconvenience to the client. DP should attend
to this area with care and caution. One of the important reasons for demat rejection is
signature mismatch. Taking the following precaution can reduce this:
If the client is aware that the signature with the company& signature of the
client should be advised to the register the new signature.
If the signature is slightly different, client should be advised to sign as per the
signature that was recorded by the company and as recorded with the DP.
Ensure dispatch of DRFs and certificate to R &T Agents within seven days.
Client may be encouraged to use the Transfer-cum-demat facility if it is
offered by the company. They should be made aware of the procedures of the
scheme.
In case of joint holdings, the clients should be informed about the availability
of Transposition cum Demat facility.

CLOSURE OF ACCOUNT:
Closure on Client‟s Request- A DP can close a depository account on receipt
of an application in the prescribed format. The application should be made by the
account. In case joint-holders. An account can be closed sought to be closed, the
following steps are necessary.
a. Re-materialization of all securities standing to the credit of the same
account making the application for closure; or
b. Transferring the balance to the credit of another account opened by the
same account holder(s) either with the same participant or with a different
participant.
Before closing the account the DP should ensure that all pending transactions
have been settled. The request for closure should be processed only after ensuring that
there is no balance lying in the account.
Consolidations of accounts- Some clients have opened multiple accounts to
dematerialize their shares held in multiple combination and sequence of names.
However, they may not need so many accounts after they have dematerialized their
shares and may want to bring all their share holdings into one or fewer accounts. This
can be achieved by using normal off Market transfer instruction.
Closure by DP – the DP may also initiate closure of a client‟s account if the client
has defaulted in performing should give sufficient notice to the client before initiating
closure of his account. The notice should clearly state the reasons for closure of his
account. The notice should clearly state the reasons for closure of account. The
process of closing account in such a case is the same that of client-initiated closure.

Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com Page 44
Closure/ Shifting of Clearing Account –A clearing member may transfer its
clearing account from one DP to another DP. For this, simultaneously applications
have to be made for closure of account to the earlier DP and for opening of new
clearing member account to the new DP. On receipt of the application, the new DP

Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com Page 46
SETTLEMENT
The settlement of trades in the stock exchanges is undertaken by the clearing
corporation (CC)/ clearing house (CH) of the corresponding stock exchanges. While
the settlement of dematerialized securities is effected through depository, the funds
settlement is effected through the clearing banks. The clearing members directly with
the CC/ CH settle the physical securities.
Exclusive demat segment follows rolling settlement (T+5) cycle and the
unified (erstwhile - physical) segment follows account period settlement cycle. In case
of rolling settlement cycle, the account period is reduced to one day.
In case of settlement of trades done in exclusive demat segments, the pay-in
and pay out of funds and securities are effected on the same day afternoon and
evening (same day) thus reducing the blockage of funds and limiting exposure
to the clearing corporation.
Settlement of funds is effected through the clearing banks and depository
plays no role in this.
Settlement of securities is effected through NSDL depository system.
Clearing and settlement of the regular market trades is effected through the
clearing members of the clearing houses of respective stock exchanges. All
trading members of stock exchanges are clearing members of clearing houses.
In addition, for settlement of institutional trades, custodians are also allowed
to act as clearing members.
Clearing members of clearing house, dealing in dematerialized securities are
expected to open a clearing account with any DP for the purpose of settling
trades in dematerialized securities. As, in the mixed (unified) segment, there is
47. A Study of Respondent Satisfaction towards Depository Participants at Karvy
Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com Page 47
a possibility for all clearing members to receive dematerialized securities, they
are expected to open clearing accounts.
If there is any short delivery at the time of pay-in of securities, these short
positions are auctioned in the Demat segment as done in the Unified (erstwhile-
physical) segment.
Selling and Buying Of Shares:
Selling dematerialized shares in stock exchanges is similar to the procedure
for selling physical shares. Instead of delivering physical shares to the broker, you
instruct your DP to debit your account with the number of shares sold by you and
credit your broker's clearing account.
For this, a delivery instruction has to be given to your DP in a standardized
format, which will be available with your DP.
In short, for selling demat shares;
You can sell shares in any of the stock exchanges linked to a depository
through a broker of your choice.
Give an instruction to your DP to debit your account and credit your broker's
clearing member pool account. (this is a depository account used exclusively
for settling transactions by a broker)
On the pay-in day, your broker gives instruction to his DP for delivery of the
shares to clearing corporation of the relevant stock exchange.
The broker receives payment from the clearing corporation
48. A Study of Respondent Satisfaction towards Depository Participants at Karvy
Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com Page 48
You receive payment from your broker for the sale in the same manner you
would receive payment for a sale in the physical mode.
Buying Demat Shares:
The procedure for buying dematerialized shares in stock exchanges is similar
to the procedure for buying physical shares. When you want to purchase shares in
electronic form, you have to instruct your broker to purchase the dematerialized
shares from the stock exchanges linked to a depository.
Once the order is executed, you have to instruct your DP (vide a simple format
which is available with the DP) to receive securities from your broker's clearing
account.
Alternatively, you may give a standing instruction to receive credits into your
account and do away with giving a separate receipt instruction each time you expect a
credit. You have to ensure that your broker too gives a matching instruction to his DP
to transfer the shares purchased on your behalf into your depository account.
You should also ensure that your broker transfers the shares purchased from
his clearing account to your depository account, before the book closure. This is really
important because shares that remain in the clearing account of the broker on the book
closure/ record date will not be eligible for corporate benefits.
In brief, the transactions relating to purchase of shares are:
You can purchase shares in any of the stock exchanges connected to a
depository through a broker of your choice and make a payment to your
broker;
49. A Study of Respondent Satisfaction towards Depository Participants at Karvy
Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com Page 49
Your broker receives credit in his clearing account with his DP on the pay-out
day;
Broker gives instructions to his DP to debit his clearing account and credit
your account;
You instruct your DP for receiving credit into your depository account either
through a specific receipt instruction or using the "standing instruction"
facility.
In case you are not using the "standing instruction" facility then, your
depository account is credited only if the instructions given by you and your
broker match.
Other Services
Besides demat and trading Depositories also offer other services, these are:
o Pledging/ hypothecation of dematerialized securities.
o Electronic credit in public offerings of companies.
o Receipt of non-cash corporate benefits such as bonus, rights in electronic
form.
o Stock lending and borrowing.
o Transmission of securities.
Pledging: Dematerialized shares could be pledged; in fact, this is more
advantageous as compared to pledging share certificates.
To pledge your Demat shares
Both you (pledgor) as well as the lender (pledgee) must have depository
accounts.
50. A Study of Respondent Satisfaction towards Depository Participants at Karvy
Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com Page 50
You must initiate the pledge by submitting the details of the securities to be
pledged in a standard format (available with DPs).
The pledgee should confirm the request through his DP.
Once this is done, your securities are pledged
All commercial documentation between the pledgor and the pledgee are
handled outside the depository system.
After you have repaid your loan, you can request for a closure of pledge by
instructing your DP through a standard format. The pledgee on receiving the
repayment as well as the request for closure of pledge will instruct his DP
accordingly.
Even the locked-in securities can be pledged, however they cannot be invoked
before the lock-in release date.
Even after the securities are pledged, the pledgor continues to remain the
beneficiary holder of those securities and will receive benefits of a corporate action, if
any.
51. A Study of Respondent Satisfaction towards Depository Participants at Karvy
Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com Page 51
Initial Public Offerings: Credits for public offers can be directly received into
demat account. In the public issue application form of depository eligible companies,
there will be a provision to indicate the manner in which securities should be allotted
to the applicant. All you have to do is to mention your client account number and the
name and identification number of your DP.
Any allotment due to you will be credited into your account.
If the applicant is allotted securities in dematerialized form, but the details
regarding the beneficiary account are incomplete/ wrong, the person will get physical
delivery of allotted securities.
If securities were allotted in the dematerialized form, these would be credited
to applicant‟s account any day between allotment date and listing date, at the
discretion of the company.
The issuer company/ their R&T agent will forward the applicant the allotment
advice giving the number of shares allotted in dematerialized form. Through this you
can come to know that you have been allotted shares.
An amendment to the company law requiring all future public issues above
Rs100mn to compulsorily offer securities in dematerialized form is awaiting
legislative approval. After this all the issues above Rs100mn will require investors to
trade only in demat way.
Partly paid up and fully paid up shares in the depository, will be given
separate ISINs (International Securities Identification Number). These are also traded
separately at the stock exchanges.
52. A Study of Respondent Satisfaction towards Depository Participants at Karvy
Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com Page 52
The company issues call notices to the beneficial holders of securities in the
electronic form. The details of such beneficial holders will be provided to the issuer/
their R&T agent by NSDL. After the call money realization, issuer/ their R&T agent
will electronically convert the partly paid up shares to fully paid up shares.
Receipt Of Cash/ Non-Cash Benefits: When any corporate event such as
rights or bonus or dividend is announced for a particular security, depository will give
the details of all the clients having electronic holdings in that security as of the record
date to the registrar. The registrar will then calculate the corporate benefits due to all
the shareholders. The disbursement of cash benefits such as dividend/ interest will be
done directly by the registrar. In case of non-cash benefits, depository will directly
credit the securities entitlements in the depository accounts of all those clients who
have opted for electronic allotment based on the information provided by the registrar.
The bonus/ rights issue against holding in dematerialized form can be either in
the physical/ dematerialized form as per the choice of the investor. If no choice is
given, by default, the securities will be issued in the physical form.
Even if an investor has holdings in physical form, he can receive the bonus/
rights issue against this in the dematerialized form.
In case of fractional part, as in the physical segment, it would be paid in cash
and the remaining whole part would be credited to the investors account.
The statement of holding and transaction statement is sent by the investors DP,
it will show the bonus/ rights credit into investor‟s account. This report is sent to the
investor every fifteen days. In addition, an allotment advise will be send by the issuer/
their R&T agent for bonus/ rights entitlement.
53. A Study of Respondent Satisfaction towards Depository Participants at Karvy
Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com Page 53
Stock Lending and borrowing: Through the depository account securities in
the demat form can be easily lent/ borrowed. Securities can be lent or borrowed in
electronic form through an approved intermediary, who has opened a special
'intermediary' account with a DP.
To Lend Securities: You have to instruct your DP through a standard format
(which is available with your DP) to deposit your securities with the intermediary.
If the intermediary accepts your deposit of securities, the securities will be
moved from your account into the intermediary's account. If you wish to recall the
securities lent by you, you can make a request vide a standard format available with
your DP.
To Borrow Securities: You have to instruct your DP through a standard format
(which is available with your DP) to borrow securities from the intermediary.
If the intermediary accepts your request, the securities will be moved from the
intermediary's account to your account. If you wish to return the securities borrowed
by you, you can make a request vide a standard format available with your DP.
Transmission Of Securities: Transmission of securities due to death, lunacy,
bankruptcy, and insolvency or by any other lawful means other than transfer is also
possible in the depository system. In the case of transmission, the claimant will have
to fill in a transmission request form, (which is available with the DP) supported by
valid documents. The DP, after ensuring that the application is genuine, will transfer
securities to the account of the claimant. For this, the claimant must have a depository
account. The major advantage in transmission of dematerialized holdings is that the
54. A Study of Respondent Satisfaction towards Depository Participants at Karvy
Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com Page 54
transmission formalities for all securities held with a DP can be completed in one go,
unlike in the case of share certificates, where the claimant will have to interact with
each issuing company or its R&T Agent.
In case where the deceased was one of the joint holders in the Client account,
the surviving client(s) shall be the person(s) recognized by depository as having title
to the securities held in that joint Client account. In case where the deceased was a
sole holder of the Client account, his legal heir(s) or the legal representative(s) will be
the person(s) recognized by depository as having title to the securities held in that sole
Client account.
Security: National Security and Depository Limited claims to have undertaken
sufficient security measures. These measures are:
A DP can be operational only after registration by Sebi, which is based on the
recommendation from NSDL and Sebi‟s own independent evaluation. Sebi has
prescribed criteria for becoming a DP in the regulations.
DPs are allowed to effect any debit and credit to an account only on the basis
of valid instruction from the client.
Every day, there is a system driven mandatory reconciliation between the DP
and NSDL.
There are periodic inspections into the activities of both DP and R&T agent by
NSDL. This also includes records based on which the debit/ credit are
effected.
The data interchange between NSDL and its business partners is protected by
standard protection measures such as encryption. This is a SEBI requirement.
55. A Study of Respondent Satisfaction towards Depository Participants at Karvy
Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com Page 55
There are no direct communication links between two business partners and
all communications between two business partners are routed through NSDL
All investors have a right to receive their statement of accounts periodically
from the DP.
Every month NSDL forwards statement of accounts to a random sample of
investors as a counter check.
In the depository, the depository holds the investor holdings on trust.
Therefore, if the DP goes bankrupt the creditors of the DP will have no access
to the holdings in the name of the clients of the DP. These investors can then
either dematerialize their holdings or transfer them to a different account held
with another DP.
Investor grievance: All grievances of the investors are to be resolved by the
concerned DP. If they fail to do so the investor has the right to approach
NSDL.
Insurance Cover: NSDL has taken a comprehensive insurance policy to protect
the interest of the investors in cases of failure of the DP to resolve a genuine
loss. The details of the policy is as under:
Upper limit per claim: Rs200mn.
Number of claims allowed: unlimited
Minimum value of the claim: Rs150, 000
To cover claims valued less than Rs150, 000 NSDL has an investor protection
fund in place.
Besides all these safety measures efforts have been done to make this electronic
system foolproof.

DEMAT SHARES: ARE THEY 100% SAFE
When you buy physical shares from the stock market, you could never be
certain of the validity of the title of shares. There were many reasons- the sellers'
signature did not match, or the certificates were fake, forged or stolen, and so on.
Demat shares are supposed to obviate these problems. Buying shares in the
demat form always guarantees you a good title as soon as the settlement is over. The
biggest attraction of trading in demat shares is that the shares you buy come with a
clean title and immediately after the settlement on the relevant stock exchange.
Rule 100 of market regulator SEBI determines whether the shares delivered in
a settlement, are good or not. Under rule 100, the shares that have been transferred the
company can still withdraw any number of times, if a transfer is found to be invalid
for any reason.
Suppose a sells physical shares to B and B gets them dematerialized. Later B
sells the shares in the stock exchange and C buys them. Meanwhile A discovers that
his share certificates were stolen and fraudulently sold by someone else. He gets a
court order restraining the company from further transferring the shares and attaching
them (currently in possession of C). This is known as 'stop transfer'. So C who has
bought dematerialized shares is now struck with the shares. He cannot sell these
shares since they would be frozen in his account
In demat shares, pre-demat problems about the validity of a share do not effect
the interest of the buyers after dematerialization. Shares go through a verification
process at the registrars' before they are dematerialized.
57. A Study of Respondent Satisfaction towards Depository Participants at Karvy
Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com Page 57
Therefore the responsibility lies with the registrar. The registrar must find a
remedy if the original transfer of shares, before their dematerialization comers under
doubt. But there is a catch. The company and its registrars are not responsible if the
reasons for original transfer being invalid were not available at the time of
dematerialization. Matters have to be dealt with on a case-to-case basis. Which means
that even demat buyer may find that his shares have been frozen in his demat account.
This kind of case has to be contested in court by the parties involved.
This issue is not directly addressed in The Depositories Act, 1996. Sebi‟s
regulations on depositories and depository participants also do not mention the issue.
Matters get more complex if an investor has traded further in shares of the
same company in his demat account. Demat shares are fungible and don‟t have
distinctive numbers. It is not easy to track the sale or trade of shares after they are
dematerialized.
In a rare event of your DP going bankrupt or closing the operations, the
interests of the investors will be fully protected. In such a situation, the investors will
be given an option of either transferring the securities to a new DP or they may
rematerialise the securities

Recommendation
Customer service should be improved and more co-operation also provide.
Time taken for transfer of script from trading account into demat account should
be reduced.
Statement copy should made more clear and figure should be mention in
respective column.
More space provide in trading place.
The commission charged should be reduced.
The office should be situated near bus stand or subhas road.
81. A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants
Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com Page 15
CONCLUSION
Since it is service based industry, the customer plays vital role, so in order to
satisfy the customer appoint more no of well qualified agents who can communicate
respondents to improve the services, hence give more advertisement in News paper, local
TV channel, to over come the over crowding and non availability of telephone links
proper measure should be taken.
