What is a Demat Account?
In the year of 1996 INC started issuing share certificates in electronic mode. All the existing certificates were added into one single account in the digital form to manage and transact. This account is known as the Demat account. The Demat account in general facilitates you to hold and transact your stocks, shares, mutual funds, bonds and other products such as ETF (Exchange Traded Fund) in the digital form at ease.
Why do you need a Demat Account?
Since the entire financial platform of investing, trading, and maintaining has become digitized, it is important to have a Demat account. Also, the digitized account format allows easy maintenance and transparency of the trades and transactions. The dematerialised certification reduces the risk of duplicates and fake certificates. Every account holder is given a unique account number to hold the shares and securities just like the bank accounts.
