Demat account is an account that holds shares, bonds, ETFs and other such securities in custody. You can understand demat account like a bank account. Just as a bank account holds cash in custody, the demat account holds stocks and other securities. Just as you can debit and credit cash and cheques to a bank account, you can debit and credit equities and other securities to a demat account.
In India, there are two national level depositories that hold shares in custody viz. National Securities Depository Limited (NSDL) and Central Depository Services Limited (CDSL). However, investors do not directly open a demat account with the depositories. These depositories authorize depository participants (DPs) to open demat accounts on their behalf. For example, IIFL Securities is a registered depository participant (DP) with NSDL and CDSL.
There are 3 important terms in understanding demat account in India.
1. Dematerialisation
It is a process that facilitates the conversion of share certificates from physical to the electronic form. Shares held thereafter are easier to manage while providing more accessibility from anywhere around the globe.
Dematerialisation also allows you to monitor and track your holdings seamlessly, on-the-go.
2. Depositary participants
A depository participant acts as an intermediary or agent of a central depository and provides namesake services to investors and traders. India currently has two central depositories registered with the apex trading and investment regulatory body SEBI.
A depository participant must, therefore, be registered with either of these two licensed operators to open a Demat account.
3. Unique 16-digit client ID
Each demat account is assigned with a unique 16-digit client ID that acts as the investor's identity. The first 8 digits of the ID represent the depository participant while the last 8 digits act as a unique identification for the investor, facilitating sale or purchase of shares and securities.
We are happy to inform that at IIFL Securities, we don't charge any fees for opening a demat account. However, some discount brokers may require you to pay account opening charges.

Annual maintenance charges are essentially charges levied by a depository participant for maintaining your demat account. But, there's some good news! When you open a demat account with IIFL Securities, you enjoy zero AMC for the first year.
