How To Close HDFC Securities Account? – A dematerialized account, or “Demat account,” is where all of the nation’s shares and equities are held electronically. This account is set up to prevent any investor from taking physical possession of the certificates.
You will require a principal investor to open the Demat account, and the account must be registered with an investment broker. The National Securities Depository Limited and the Central Depository Services Limited are the depositories where the Demat account’s shares are stored.
The critical thing to remember right now is that, instead of buying shares from investors directly, all depositors can obtain their shares from the depository’s participants.
They are also known as DP, these participants. The Securities Exchange Board of India, or SEBI, has registered them as agents for depositors. One such DP holds the shares from your Demat account, in this instance, HDFC bank.
