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
5
A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants
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office paper work intermediaries These outdated systems have increased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
21
A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants
“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.
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
22
A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants
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 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.
23
A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants
• 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
24
A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants
physical form. However, after he has bought the shares the investor can
ask for rematerialization of the shares.
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).
25
A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants
• 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) 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
26
A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants
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 into an agreement with the DP The form and
contents of this agreement are specified by the business rules of NSLD
27
A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants
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
28
A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants
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

A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants
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

A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants
The entities that are authorized to pay out from a clearing
corporation/ clearing house against traders done by them or their clients
are known as clearing members. CMs are identified in the system through
their CM-BP ID. All pay-in and pay-out transactions are carried out
through their accounts.
There are two types of clearing members:
1. All members of a stock exchange popularly know as brokers, are
clearing members;
2. Custodians who are permitted by the stock exchange to act as a
clearing members.
35
A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants
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.
36
A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants
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.
• Arrangement of clearing account
 Pool Account
 Delivery Account
 Receipt Account
Clearing Corporation (CC)/Clearing House (CH)

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
37
Selling

Buying
Client
A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants
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
38
A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants
combination of market type and settlement number must be provided. A
diagrammatic illustration of the internal structure of a clearing account is
depicted in next page.
39
A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants

exchange. It contains details for each market type & settlement number.

A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants
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. Typically, a market trade has the following
legs of transactions.
a. Receiving securities for pay-in from clients (client to clearing
members)
b. Delivering securities to the clearing house/clearing corporation
for pay-in. (clearing house/clearing corporation)
c. Receiving pay-out from the clearing house/clearing corporation.
(Clearing House/clearing Corporation to clearing member)
d. Distribution of pay-out to clients. (Clearing member to client)

Receiving securities for pay-in from clients (client to clearing member)
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 diagrammatic Illustration for
securities received for pay-in from clients is depicted below:

OFF MARKET TRANSFERS: Any trade, which is not cleared and

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. Both buyer and seller
may open account either with the same DP or with different 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. This transfer is effected by the DP of the selling
client on the basis of a delivery instruction provided by the selling clients.

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
46
A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants
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.
Karvy Consultants Ltd. has four DPMs as on date. They are:
1.Hyderabad-IN300394
2.Lucknow - IN301557
3.Bangalore- IN301926
4. Mumbai - IN302470
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.

A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants
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 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,
48
A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants
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.
49
A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants
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.

Steps:
1. Client/ investor submits the DRF (Demat Request Form) and
Physical certificates to DP. DP checks whether the securities are
51
Investor
R & T Agent
DP
NSDL
A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants
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.
52
A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants
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,
53
A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants
number of certificates, total quantity of securities and lock-in
statues are filled-in correctly.
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
54
A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants
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
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
55
A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants
• 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
 ISIN to be entered by DP.
 All joint holders to sign DRF.
 Check DRF form with details on certificate.
56
A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants
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.
57
A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants
 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.
58
A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants
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.
59
A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants
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.
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 forwards the application to the depository
for approval and allotment of a new CM-BP-ID is allotted, the new DP
opens a new Clearing account and intimates the depository about the new
client- ID. On receipt of intimation from the intimates the clearing
member. All pay-out of securities, subsequent to the closure of old
clearing account, take place in the new account. Pg-17-3

TRADING & SETTLEMENT:
This is the an area where the DP must the DP must take immense
care while accepting and processing request listed below should from the
account of his client to another account. The aspects listed below should
be kept in mind.
 Ensure that the delivery instruction book given to each client has
pre-printed serial number and client-ID.
 Inform clients about the pay-in deadline of the stock exchange and
the deadline of the DP.
 Each DIS received should be inwarded correctly with the date and
time stamp.
 Late stamp must be affixed on the instructions received after the
expiry of the deadline set by the DP.
 Ensure the correctness of execution date on the DIS.
 Ensure signature on DIS matches with the records of the DP.
 Ensure that the signatures of all holders are obtain in case of joint
accounts.
 If the client has not issued “standing instructions”, he should be
made aware that a receipt in instruction will be required to the
credits into the account on purchase of shares.
 Client should be made aware of the accounting freezing facility.
61
A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants
62
A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants
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.
63
A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants
• 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 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.
64
A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants
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
• You receive payment from your broker for the sale in the same
manner you would receive payment for a sale in the physical mode.
65
A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants
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:
66
A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants
• 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;
• 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.
67
A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants
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.
• 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.
68
A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants
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.
69
A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants
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
70
A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants
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.
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.
71
A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants
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.
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.
72
A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants
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
73
A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants
account of the claimant. For this, the claimant must have a depository
account. The major advantage in transmission of dematerialized holdings
is that the 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.
74
A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants
• 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.
• 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
75
A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants
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
76
A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants
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
77
A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants
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.
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.
78
A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants
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.
108
A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants
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.

  • 21. A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants 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 21
  • 22. A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants “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. 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 22
  • 23. A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants 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 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. 23
  • 24. A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants • 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 24
  • 25. A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants physical form. However, after he has bought the shares the investor can ask for rematerialization of the shares. 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). 25
  • 26. A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants • 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) 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 26
  • 27. A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants 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 into an agreement with the DP The form and contents of this agreement are specified by the business rules of NSLD 27
  • 28. A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants 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 28

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 30

  • 35. A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants The entities that are authorized to pay out from a clearing corporation/ clearing house against traders done by them or their clients are known as clearing members. CMs are identified in the system through their CM-BP ID. All pay-in and pay-out transactions are carried out through their accounts. There are two types of clearing members: 1. All members of a stock exchange popularly know as brokers, are clearing members; 2. Custodians who are permitted by the stock exchange to act as a clearing members. 35
  • 36. A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants 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. 36
  • 37. A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants 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. • Arrangement of clearing account  Pool Account  Delivery Account  Receipt Account Clearing Corporation (CC)/Clearing House (CH) Clearing Account Delivery Account Pool Account Receipt Account 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 37 Selling client Buying Client
  • 38. A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants 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 38

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.

  • 46. A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants 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 46
  • 47. A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants 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. Karvy Consultants Ltd. has four DPMs as on date.

Mumbai - IN302470 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. 47
  • 48. A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants 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 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, 48
  • 49. A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants 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. 49
  • 50. A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants 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. 50

Client/ investor submits the DRF (Demat Request Form) and Physical certificates to DP. DP checks whether the securities are 51 Investor R & T Agent DP NSDL
  • 52. A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants 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. 52
  • 53. A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants 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, 53
  • 54. A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants number of certificates, total quantity of securities and lock-in statues are filled-in correctly. 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 54
  • 55. A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants 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 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 55
  • 56. A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants • 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  ISIN to be entered by DP.  All joint holders to sign DRF.  Check DRF form with details on certificate. 56
  • 57. A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants 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. 57
  • 58. A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants  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. 58
  • 59. A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants 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. 59
  • 60. A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants 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 process of closing account in such a case is the same that of client-initiated closure. 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 forwards the application to the depository for approval and allotment of a new CM-BP-ID is allotted, the new DP opens a new Clearing account and intimates the depository about the new client- ID.

  • 63. A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants 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. 63
  • 64. A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants • 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 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. 64
  • 65. A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants 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 • You receive payment from your broker for the sale in the same manner you would receive payment for a sale in the physical mode. 65
  • 66. A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants 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: 66
  • 67. A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants • 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; • 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. 67
  • 68. A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants 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. • 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. 68
  • 69. A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants 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. 69
  • 70. A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants 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 70
  • 71. A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants 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. 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. 71
  • 72. A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants 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. 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. 72
  • 73. A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants 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 73
  • 74. A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants account of the claimant. For this, the claimant must have a depository account. The major advantage in transmission of dematerialized holdings is that the 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. 74
  • 75. A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants • 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. • 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 75
  • 76. A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants 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 76
  • 77. A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants 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 77
  • 78. A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants 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. 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. 78
  • 79. A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants 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 79
