CDSL is the first listed depository of India & second listed depsoitory of the world
A Depository facilitates holding of securities in the
electronic form and enables securities transactions to be
processed by book entry. The Depository Participant (DP),
who as an agent of the depository, offers depository
services to investors. According to SEBI guidelines,
financial institutions, banks, custodians, stockbrokers,
etc. are eligible to act as DPs. The investor who is known
as beneficial owner (BO) has to open a demat account through
any DP for dematerialisation of his holdings and
transferring securities.
The balances in the investors account recorded and
maintained with CDSL can be obtained through the DP. The DP
is required to provide the investor, at regular intervals, a
statement of account which gives the details of the
securities holdings and transactions. The depository system
has effectively eliminated paper-based certificates which
were prone to be fake, forged, counterfeit resulting in bad
deliveries. CDSL offers an efficient and instantaneous
transfer of securities.
CDSL was initially promoted by BSE Ltd. which has thereafter
divested its stake to leading banks as "Sponsors" of CDSL.
