FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions
What documents are required to open a demat account?
You need a PAN card, Aadhaar card, proof of bank account such as a cancelled cheque or recent statement, a passport-size photograph and a signature specimen. Income proof is additionally required if you plan to trade in derivatives.
What is the difference between a demat account and a trading account?
A demat account holds your shares in electronic form, like a locker. A trading account is what you use to place buy and sell orders on the exchange. You need both, and at TECHTRADE they are opened together.
Can I open an account without a bank account?
No. A bank account is mandatory. It is used to transfer funds for buying securities and to receive proceeds when you sell. The bank account must be in the same name as the demat account holder.
Can I open a joint demat account?
Yes. A demat account can be opened jointly with up to three holders. All holders must complete KYC. Note that a trading account linked to a joint demat account operates under the first holder’s name.
Is nomination mandatory?
SEBI requires every demat account holder either to nominate someone or to formally opt out of nomination. Adding a nominee makes the transfer of holdings significantly simpler for your family, so it is strongly recommended.
Can I open more than one demat account?
Yes. There is no legal limit on the number of demat accounts you can hold, provided each is with a different depository participant. You cannot hold two accounts with the same DP using the same PAN.
What is a DP ID and where do I find mine?
A DP ID identifies your depository participant. TECHTRADE’s NSDL DP ID is IN303253. Your full 16-digit demat account number combines the DP ID with your unique client ID, and appears on your account statement.
What if my application is rejected?
Applications are usually rejected for mismatched documents, an unclear signature or an address that does not match your KYC records. TECHTRADE will inform you of the reason and the specific document that needs to be resubmitted.
Do I need to complete KYC if I already have a demat account elsewhere?
If your KYC is already registered and validated with a KRA, the process is faster because your details can be fetched directly. You will still need to complete TECHTRADE’s account opening form and in-person verification.
