Share India Demat Account Fees

A demat account is an acronym for a dematerialised account which allows you to store shares and other securities in a single location. A demat account allows you to convert your shares in physical form into electronic form; this process is known as the dematerialisation. On the other hand, rematerialisation will enable you to convert your electronic shares into physical forms. 

All the demat accounts in India are maintained by the National Securities Depository Limited (NSDL) and the Central Depository Services Limited (CDSL). A depository participant (DP) allows you to open demat accounts either with CDSL or NSDL. Predominantly, CDSL helps you to buy and sell on the Bombay Stock Exchange Limited (BSE), while NSDL helps you to participate on the National Stock Exchange Limited (NSE). 

You can open a demat account within a few minutes. All you need is to complete your KYC form. It is up to you whether you choose offline or online KYC. Make sure that your demat account is linked with your bank account.
