Overview Process Documents

Dematerialization of shares, commonly called Demat, is the process of converting physical share certificates into electronic form. With SEBI guidelines and the Companies Act making demat mandatory for most transactions, shareholders still holding paper certificates must convert them to electronic holdings through a registered Depository Participant (DP).

This process ensures safety, transparency, and efficiency. It removes risks like theft, forgery, loss, or damage of certificates and makes it easier to transfer or sell shares. A Demat account allows investors to trade faster, receive dividends directly, and manage investments seamlessly.

At Codrak Solutions, we assist investors with:

Opening a Demat account with NSDL/CDSL registered DPs.
Submitting requests for conversion of physical share certificates.
Coordinating with companies and registrars for approvals.
Ensuring smooth credit of dematerialized shares into your Demat account.

The dematerialization process involves a few clear steps. Our experts guide you through each stage to make the procedure smooth and error-free.

Demat Account Opening – If you do not already have a Demat account, it must be opened with a Depository Participant (DP).
Submit Dematerialization Request Form (DRF) – The shareholder fills the DRF and submits it along with original share certificates.
Forwarding to Company or RTA – The DP sends the request to the issuing company or its Registrar and Transfer Agent (RTA).
Verification and Approval – The company verifies the certificates and approves the request if all details match.
Electronic Credit – Once approved, the physical certificates are cancelled and equivalent shares are credited electronically into your Demat account.

To complete the dematerialization of shares, the following documents are generally required:

Personal KYC Documents: PAN card, Aadhaar/Passport/Voter ID, recent photographs, bank proof (cancelled cheque or passbook).
Demat Account Details: Client Master Report (CMR) provided by the DP and a filled Dematerialization Request Form (DRF).
Shareholder Records: Original physical share certificates, valid signatures as per company records.
Additional Proof (if applicable): In case of transmission (death of shareholder), documents such as succession certificate or legal heir certificate are required.
