T.Y.BBI (SEM-V) DEMAT SERVICES BY BANKS

Dematerialization or
DEMAT in short, is the process by which the
physical share certificates (share certificate in
paper form) are converted to an equivalent
number of securities in electronic form. The
situation is somewhat similar to replacing paper
money with an electronic bank account.
Conversion of physical certificates to electronic form benefits investors
immensely. Dematting of shares eliminates risks associated with bad
deliveries, postal delays, handling problems, loss in transit, forgery,
counterfeiting, loss due to fire, theft, mutilation, etc. Investors also do not
have to pay stamp duty on transfers of shares and they can be transferred
instantaneously. Also, brokers charge a lower brokerage fee for selling
dematerialized share since the risk of bad delivery is minimized.
Investors also receive other benefits such as bonus and rights directly
credited to their accounts, thus reducing a great del of paper work and
associated delays. Lastly, the difficulty and disadvantage of trading odd
lot shares is also eliminated, as the market lot for dematerialized is just
one share!

What is Dematerialization?

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.

6
T.Y.BBI (SEM-V) DEMAT SERVICES BY BANKS

What is a Depository?
Depository functions like a
securities bank, where the dematerialized physical
securities are traded and held in custody. This
facilitates faster and low cost settlement. Depository
is much like a bank and performs many activities that
are similar to a bank. 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

Dematerialization or demat is a process to convert the


securities held in physical form into an electronic record form or to
directly allot securities in electronic record form. These electronic records
of securities are shown as "electronic balances" in the demat account of
investors. Any investor (Beneficial Owner or BO) can open a demat
account through a depository participant (DP). DP provides a link on one
hand between the BO, Company and CDSL and on the other hand
between the BO, the BO's broker and the Stock Exchange. CDSL
publishes from time to time an updated list of DP's registered with it.

7
T.Y.BBI (SEM-V) DEMAT SERVICES BY BANKS

NSDL AND CDSL

At present there are two depositories in India, National Securities


Depository Limited (NSDL) and Central Depository Services Limited
(CDSL). NSDL is the first Indian depository; it was inaugurated in
November 1996. NSDL was set up with an initial capital of US$28mn,
promoted by Industrial Development Bank of India (IDBI), Unit Trust of
India (UTI) and National Stock Exchange of India Ltd. (NSEIL). Later,
State Bank of India (SBI) also became a shareholder.
The other depository is Central Depository Services (CDS). It is
still in the process of linking with the stock exchanges. It has registered
around 20 DPs and has signed up with 40 companies. It had received a
certificate of commencement of business from SEBI on February 8, 1999.
In order to facilitate transfers between investors having accounts in the
two existing depositories in the country the Securities and Exchange
Board of India has asked all stock exchanges to link up with the
depositories. The NSDL and CDS have signed an agreement for inter-
depository connectivity.

What is a DP?
NSDL carries out its activities through various functionaries called
business partners who include Depository Participants (DPs)
Who can be a DP?
Public Financial Institutions.
Scheduled banks.
RBI Approved Foreign banks operating in India.
State financial corporations.

features which provide BOs a convenient, dependable and secure
depository services at affordable cost.

cities/towns across the country and thus providing investors a
wide choice for selecting a DP, depending on his locational and
other conveniences. Many more DPs are expected to get

2. On-line DP Services:

branches. All these branches are electronically connected to
CDSL thereby taking the depository services to the door-step of
investors. DP branches facilitate quicker execution of demat
instructions.

3. Availability of Wide Spectrum of Securities:

The equity shares of over 5000 companies are available for


dematerialisation on CDSL. CDSL extends demat facilities
practically for all categories of securities which include bonds,
debentures, commercial papers, government securities and
certificates of deposit.

4. Competitive Fees Structure:

13
T.Y.BBI (SEM-V) DEMAT SERVICES BY BANKS

CDSL's fee is very reasonable and competitive, which makes it


possible for DPs to offer demat services to investors at
affordable cost. CDSL DPs are not required to pay any custody
or ISIN fees to CDSL.

5. Internet Access:

Through CDSL's unique internet facility "electronic access to


securities information" -. "Easi", a BO by registering himself
through his DP (who in turn will have to be registered with
CDSL for use of this facility) can know and even print
statements of his demat account. The BO can also know the
status of his previous 7 days transactions at any time by logging
into easi. BO gets a unique facility of knowing the daily
valuation of the securities held in their demat account, at the
previous day's closing price on the BSE.

Dependability:
1. On-line Information to Users:

With the CDSL's centralised database architecture; on-line


depository services are available to BOs with up-to-the-minute
status of his BO accounts.

2. Safety of data:

Even if any system-related problems develop at the DPs end, it


does not affect the BOs interest in any way as the CDSL

14
T.Y.BBI (SEM-V) DEMAT SERVICES BY BANKS

database is maintained centrally. The DP can also avail of the


facility of contingency terminals available at CDSL's Mumbai
office for executing instructions.

3. Audit and inspection:

CDSL conducts regular audit of its DPs to ensure compliance of


the stringent operational and regulatory requirements.

4. Helpdesk:

CDSL's prompt and courteous helpline facility is available to


DPs and investors to obtain any clarifications and guidance.

the evolving market practices is another hallmark of the CDSL's
system.

storage devices, communication networks which ensure the
security and integrity of all data uninterruptedly. All data at
CDSL is auto mirrored separately and also transmitted to a
Disaster Recovery Site which is located at a different place
away from the main site.

2. System Access:

15
T.Y.BBI (SEM-V) DEMAT SERVICES BY BANKS

As the system does not provide for dial-up access, only


authorised users can access CDSL system. In other words, only
a person at DP end who has been pre-authorised by CDSL can
access the CDSL system.

3. Unique BO Account Number:

Each BO in the CDSL system is allocated a unique account


number. This avoids wrong transfer of securities in the event the
transferor's account number is keyed-in wrongly at the DP end.

4. Insurance Cover:

CDSL has obtained adequate insurance cover for any unlikely


loss occurring to a BO due to the negligence at CDSL and/or its
DP.

DEMATERIALIZATION PROCESS AND


PROCEDURE:
Opening a Depository Account.
Investors, both individuals and non-individuals, have a
choice to open a demat account with any CDSL DP.
Individual investors could be Indian residents or NRIs. Non-
16
T.Y.BBI (SEM-V) DEMAT SERVICES BY BANKS

individual BO includes Corporates, FIs, FIIs, Mutual


Funds, Trusts etc. Under two way fungibility of ADR/GDR,
non-residents can also open a demat account with a CDSL
DP.
A BO should consider fee structure, locational convenience
and the track record of the DP before selecting a DP for
opening his BO account.
More than one demat account can be opened in identical
names with the same or different DPs with the same
depository and/or with both the depositories.
A demat account can be maintained even with 'nil' balance as
there is no requirement of holding any minimum-security
balance in a demat account.
If securities are already held in joint names, the demat
account should be opened in the order of names in which the
securities are held. If the securities are held by an individual
jointly with different persons, separate demat accounts will
have to be opened for each such combinations. However, if
the same persons hold securities in different order of their
names, one single demat account in names of all these
persons (not exceeding 3 persons) would be sufficient,
provided the facility of transposition-cum-demat is used.
At the time of opening a demat account or anytime
thereafter, individuals having a BO account in a single or
joint name/s, a nomination can be made. In the unfortunate
event of demise of one of the joint holders, the securities can
be transmitted in the names of the surviving holders. But, in
the event of demise of the sole holder or all the joint holders,
the securities can be transmitted in the name of the nominee.

or. demat account number). This BO-ID should be quoted in all
future correspondence with the DP, Issuer Companies and/or

20
T.Y.BBI (SEM-V) DEMAT SERVICES BY BANKS

BOs Should Carefully Note The Following :

BOs may consider issuing one time instruction to their DPs for
getting securities in the demat account automatically credited to
their account. Purchased securities are credited to the BO
account after payout of the securities by the clearing
house/corporation of the stock exchange. Securities purchased
on any of the stock exchanges connected to CDSL can be
directly received in the BO account. CDSL currently has
connectivity with 16 stock exchanges.
For sale of securities in demat form, after the broker confirms
the trade, the BO should immediately issue debit instruction to
his DP using a debit instruction slip.
For maintaining the cut-off time for submitting delivery
instructions for trades done on the stock exchange (on-market
trades) as per SEBI requirement, delivery instructions need to
be issued latest by 24 hours before the pay-in time of the
exchange where transaction has been done. Any delay in issuing
instructions to the DP might result in non-delivery of
shares/securities resulting in auctioning of such securities and
consequent loss to the investor. This is more so in T+2
settlement cycle.
Any change in address and/or bank account should be intimated
to DP together with supporting documents as evidence.
While accepting the Delivery Instruction (DI) slip book issued
by the DP, Bo should ensure that his BO-ID is pre-stamped on
all the pages along with the serial number. The DI book should
be kept safely. BOs should not issue to anyone blank DI slips

21
T.Y.BBI (SEM-V) DEMAT SERVICES BY BANKS

duly signed. BOs should also strike out the empty space, if any,
in the DI slip, before submitting to DP.
Fees:
CDSL does not charge any fee directly to the beneficial account
holder but collects the depository fees for debit and pledge
transactions in any BO account from the concerned DP. The
charges indicated by DPs are generally is inclusive of CDSL fee, if
any.
Redressal Of Investor Grievances:
In case of any unresolved grievance with your DP, please contact
the compliance officer of your DP or Investor Relations Officer.

Disclaimer:
This brochure contains information, which is subject to change
without prior notice and cannot be the basis for any claims or
demand or cause of action by anyone against CDSL or its DPs.
CDSL's demat services are extended through its agents called
Depository Participants (DP). The DP is the link between the
investor and CDSL. An investor who opens a demat account
with a DP can utilise the services offered by CDSL. While the
DP processes the instructions of the investor, the account and
records thereof is maintained with CDSL. A DP is thus a
"service centre" for the investor. DSLs system is based on
centralised database architecture with on-line connectivity with
DPs. Because of this centralised architecture, the cost for setting
up a DP outfit under CDSL system is significantly lower.
Similarly, the recurring costs to be incurred by a CDSL-DP in
terms of maintaining back-ups and the related data storage are

22
T.Y.BBI (SEM-V) DEMAT SERVICES BY BANKS

minimal. This enables a CDSL-DP to offer depository services


to investors at an attractive price and at the same time achieve
break-even faster at much lower volumes. The centralised
architecture also allows CDSL-DP to make available to the
investors a to-the-minute status of their account and
transactions. DSL-DPs can also set up branches with direct
electronic connectivity with CDSL.
Any Individual eligible to acquire and hold securities in his
name can open a demat account in the CDSL system through a
registered DP of CDSL of his choice. While choosing his DP
the individual may take into consideration the service standards,
charges and convenience of location.

Some basic facts for the demat accounts

identical name and order with the same DP or different DPs.
Minimum Account Balance :

(Non-individuals including societies, trusts, body corporate,

23
T.Y.BBI (SEM-V) DEMAT SERVICES BY BANKS

partnership firms, kartas of HUF, holders of power of attorney


however, cannot nominate). In the event of the death of one of
the joint holders, the securities will be transmitted in the names
of the surviving holders. If the sole or all the joint holders are
deceased, the shares will be transmitted in the name of the
nominee.
Statement of Account:
A periodical statement of holdings and transactions is provided
by DP. This can also be asked for from the DP.
Credit Confirmation:
In order to receive all the credits coming to demat account
automatically, a one time standing instruction can be given to
the DP at the time of opening your account.

Procedure for Demat

Form

Submit a completely filled up Demat Request Form (DRF) in triplicate for each ISIN
along with defaced physical securities. We have provided you with one blank
Dematerialisation Request Form (DRF). Additional forms are available at any of the
ICICI Bank branches offering Demat Services.

Filling up the form

Ensure that security mentioned on the certificates is eligible for Demat. For
being eligible for demat, the company has to sign up with NSDL. You can
check eligibility on www.icicibank.com or ask the nearest Branch.

Use a separate DRF for each security having a unique International Security
Identification Number (ISIN). Verify the certificates carefully and mention the
correct ISIN. In case two or more sets of certificates of the same security have

29
T.Y.BBI (SEM-V) DEMAT SERVICES BY BANKS

different ISIN (this is possible in case of partly paid up shares and non-pari
passu shares), use separate DRFs for each ISIN. However, you can
dematerialise multiple folio nos. of the same pattern of holders relating to the
same ISIN under a single DRF.
Submit certificates under lock-in under separate DRF. Do not mix the same
with free securities. In case of locked-in securities, fill up the lock-in reason &
lock-in release date on the DRF. Amongst lock-in securities belonging to the
same ISIN but having different lock-in release dates or lock-in reason, make
separate DRF requests.
Demat requests received from client(s) with name(s) not matching exactly
with the name(s) appearing on the certificates merely on account of initials not
being spelt out fully or put after or prior to the surname, can be processed.
However, this is possible only if the signature(s) of the client(s) on the DRF
tallies with the specimen signature(s) available with the Issuer or its Registrar.
For example, the shareholder may have opened the depository account in the
name of Sushil Ramesh Shah but his name on the share certificate may appear
as S. R. Shah or Sushil R Shah etc.
The combination and the order of holders names on DRF and as printed on
the Certificates should be identical with that in the DP account.
For example, if the shares are in the name of X, Y (X as first holder and Y and
second holder) it cannot be dematerialised in the account of either X or Y
alone. Also if the shares are in the name of X, they cannot be dematerialised in
the account of X, Y (X as first holder and Y as second holder).
However, where the combination of holders is the same in the certificates and
in the demat account, and the difference is only in the order in which the name
of the holders appear on the share certificates and in the demat account,
dematerialisation is possible. Here, you have to submit a Transposition
Request Form along with the DRF. The form is also available at the nearest
Branch.
The DRF must be signed by all the account holders and should be in the same
order. The signature on the DRF should match with the specimen signature
with ICICI Bank. If the signature differs, you should sign the DRF in the
presence of the Branch Officer. If you have a doubt that the signature on the

30
T.Y.BBI (SEM-V) DEMAT SERVICES BY BANKS

DRF may not match with that registered with the Registrar, you can get the
signature on the DRF attested by your banker.
The details of certificates such as the folio no., certificate no., & distinctive no.
must be filled up correctly on the DRF.

Submitting the form

You must deface the certificates by putting a stamp or by writing Surrendered


for Dematerialisation. However defacing should be done only after checking
the eligibility of security, as defaced securities cannot be sold in physical form.
If defacing has been done by mistake then you should send the same to
registrar for replacement.

*NSDL Business Rule 11.1.7. :

(The Participant shall ensure that the certificates submitted for


dematerialisation are marked by the Client (customer) with the words
Surrendered for Dematerialisation.)

Certificates should not be mutilated or defaced in such a way that the material
information is not readable.

Ensure that the certificates are attached in the same order as mentioned in the
DRF.
You should submit the DRF in triplicate. You can submit the DRF at any
ICICI Bank branch. The acknowledgement slip at the bottom of the form will
be stamped and handed over to you after verification by the ICICI Bank
official.

Credit in the Demat Account

31
T.Y.BBI (SEM-V) DEMAT SERVICES BY BANKS

The defaced shares along with the DRF are sent by ICICI Bank to the registrar
who will then credit the customers account. The normal time taken for credit
of shares to the account after confirmation by the Registrar is about 30 days.
However the time taken would vary from one registrar to another over which
ICICI Bank has no control.

To check whether your account has been credited, you can refer to the
transaction statement (Refer # 12, below). The same will be reflected in
pending demat balance on receiving your request. After dematerialisation, the
same will be reflected under free balance. Alternatively you can use the web
(register on www.icicibank.com), phone us or visit the ICICI Bank branch. In
case your account does not get credited within a month of submission, you can
either phone us or send an email to customer.care@icicibank.com

In case there is a delay beyond 40 days, if you so wish, ICICI Bank can give
you the registrars name and telephone number as well as your Demat Request
Number (DRN).

Rejection of Demat Requests

Your request may get rejected for various reasons either at the Central
Processing Office of ICICI Bank or by the Registrar. Dematerialisation is done
by the Registrar only when it is satisfied of genuineness of securities &
ownership status.

On a rejection, the securities are sent back to you stating the reason for the
rejection.

You can resubmit the certificates for dematerialisation after resolving the
reason for the rejection. Please resubmit on a fresh DRF. Do not use the same
DRF on which the objection was made.

securities is done through your broker just like trading in physical securities.

linked to NSDL through a broker of your choice.

depository account and credit of your brokers clearing member account.

would receive payment for a sale in the physical mode.

Buy dematerialised securities

You can purchase securities in any of the stock exchanges connected to


NSDL through a broker of your choice and make payment to your broker.

payout. He can immediately transfer these securities to your depository
account, provided your account is already active.

33
T.Y.BBI (SEM-V) DEMAT SERVICES BY BANKS

instructions through Internet / IVR (Interactive Voice Response System) on
Phone and with Speak to Transfer through our Phone Banking Officer )

details. The counter-party account may be within the same DP (Intra-DP
transfers) or with a different DP (Inter-DP transfers) within NSDL or with

associated complications. If you lose your booklet, report the same in
writing (under signature of all account holders) to the nearest Branch
immediately.

beneficiary accounts (opened by the normal investors) and clearing member pool
accounts (opened by brokers). Accordingly there are two types of transfers
possible with TIFDs. n instruction for transfer of security from a Beneficiary

In case the company in which a beneficial owner holds shares in demat form
announces any corporate benefits like bonus, dividend etc. the beneficial owner
will receive the same directly in his demat account or bank account depending on
the nature of the benefit.

Dividend:
The company/registrar takes a list of beneficial owners from NSDL as on the
record date/book closure date. Based on this list, company makes payment of
dividend. If the company is making the payment through ECS, the company
will directly credit the dividend to the bank account registered by the
beneficial owner with the DP under intimation to the beneficial owner. If the
company is making the payment through a cheque/DD, the bank details will
be printed on the dividend warrant. The mode of payment of dividend etc is
decided by the company itself.
Bonus:
The bonus securities on the eligible securities in the beneficial owners demat
account are automatically credited to the beneficial owners demat account by
the company/registrar under intimation to the beneficial owner. This will be
reflected in the transaction statement for the period. In respect of the physical
holdings, the customer will receive bonus securities in physical form.
Rights issue:

of securities from the company/registrar. These securities may be in physical
form or in electronic form in the customers demat account. The customer can

account under an intimation to you from the company/registrar. Such
credit is done before the date of listing of the securities on a date
considered convenient by the company/registrar. However, if the
details of the demat account specified in the form are incorrect, the
securities will be allotted in physical form and certificates will be sent
to you.

SEBI has announced that the shares of all companies going in for

survivor, the survivor(s) can request the DP for the securities to be transferred
to his/their demat account.
