Under the Depositories Act, investors can use the services of these Depositories through Depository Participants (DP) such as HDFC Bank.

There are a number of benefits:

  • Settlement of securities are traded on exchanges and as well as off-market transactions
  • Shorter settlements enhance liquidity
  • No stamp duty on the transfer of securities held in Demat form
  • Changing your address, registering a power of attorney and even signatures can be effected in Demat accounts by submitting requests along with the relevant documents to the Depository Participant

HDFC Bank also facilitates registration of SPEED-e (NSDL) & Easiest (CDSL). These internet-based transaction allows you to submit delivery instructions electronically, via the SPEED-e / Easiest website. This way, you have security when processing transactions, without the hassle of preparing and submitting instruction slips.

You can also hold mutual funds in a Demat Account. There are three steps to access this facility:

  • Give your Demat Account details to the Asset Management Company (AMC) / Registrar and Transfer Agent (RTA).
  • Submit a request to your Depository Participant (DP) for conversion of existing Mutual Fund units.
  • Buy Mutual Fund units through the stock exchange platform.

Concepts and Processes


Transfer cum Closure cum Waiver :

Shift your securities from your existing Depository Participant (DP) to HDFC Bank Demat Account absolutely free of any charge. The existing account should be closed and the securities transferred to another account for taking this benefit.

Beneficiary Owners (BO) Account(s) at the transferee DP and at transferor DP are one and the same, i.e. identical in all respect. In case of Joint accounts, your Demat account should also be a joint account in the same sequence of ownership.

Process of Transfer cum Closure cum Waiver (TCW):

1. Customers who wish to submit closure request [(Annexure Q)] need to come ‘In person’ – Any one of Demat Account holder(s) to be present at the time of submitting the transfer cum closure request. This requirement would also be applicable in case of NRI customers. In case of corporate Accounts, any one of the Authorised signatories will have to visit the bank personally.

2. Signatures of Demat holder(s) to be affixed in presence of the DP official (space provided in Closure request)

Depository Concepts

A Depository is like a bank where securities are held in electronic form. There are two Depositories in India – National Securities Depository Limited (NSDL) and Central Depository Services (India) Limited (CDSL).

Dematerialisation of Securities

This involves converting your Physical Securities into an electronic format.

Since Stock Exchange transactions can be handled in Demat form only, it is good to hold your securities in electronic form. This way, it’s easy to make a transfer to another account and you will not attract stamp duty.

Points to Remember:

  • Submit original certificates with a Demat Request Form (DRF)
  • Ensure that you have signatures from all account holders
  • Certificates should state ‘Surrendered for De-materialization’ your client ID and DP ID
  • Make your DRF submission in triplicate, or as requested by your DP

When HDFC Bank has received the DRF and certificates, we will:

  • Verify all names as per our records
  • Verify all signatures as per our records
  • Forward the certificates to the relevant Registrar or Company

The De-materialisation credit process normally takes around 30 days but may vary depending on the Registrar and Company. If your securities have not been credited after 30 days, please contact us at www.hdfcbank.com/services and we shall assist you to coordinate with the Company / Registrar to receive your demat credits.

If your request is rejected, please contact the branch where it was submitted. We will help to rectify and resubmit your Demat request.

Dematerialisation Credit

  • After receiving the securities certificates and DRF, the Registrar/Company will process the request and arrange to credit the equivalent quantity into your Demat Account. This process takes around 30 days but may vary from one Registrar/Company to another.
  • You may verify your monthly Demat transaction statement in months when transactions occur. You can also check your statement on the bank’s website, if you are a customer and have linked your Demat Account. The status will be reflected as "Pending Demat" till the time the electronic credit is made to your account. Once the credit is made, it will be reflected / added in the beneficiary balance.
  • An SMS is also sent to you, intimating you of demat credits.

Rejection of Demat Requests

  • In case your Demat request is rejected, kindly contact the branch where it was submitted for assistance on receipt, rectification and re-submission of your demat request.
  • An SMS is also sent to you, intimating you of demat rejection.
  • You may arrange to re-submit the securities to us for Dematerialisation, after necessary rectifications. Please ensure that a fresh DRF is submitted and not the one that has just been rejected.

Transmission-cum-Demat

  • In case security certificates are held jointly with a person who is deceased, the surviving holders can submit the certificates along with an original / notarized / gazette attested copy of the death certificate of the deceased and a ‘Transmission cum Demat’ form. The combination of names of the surviving holders on the certificates and on the account may be in the same or reverse order.
  • Ensure that an application, in the required format, is submitted along with each DRF.

Transposition cum Demat

In case security certificates are held jointly but the order of names on the certificates do not match exactly with the order of names in which the Demat Account is held, then the holders can submit a 'Transposition cum Demat' form along with the DRF and certificates to enable Demat of these certificates into such a Demat Account. 
Eg. Certificates held by A & B or A & B & C can be dematted into a Demat account held by B & A or C & B & A respectively.
