A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants
Introduction India has two hundred years old tradition in Securities. Infact that first India stock exchange established in Bombay is the oldest in Asia. The earliest security dealings were Transactions in loan securities of East India Company, the dominant institution of those days. Corporate Shares came into the picture by 1830’s and assumed significance with the Companies Act of 1956. In 1887 the broker community gave birth to the “Native share and stock brokers Association� which is now known as the Bombay Stock Exchange. The Indian Capital grew at a very moderate rate from 1951 to 1980. However it registered an impressive growth in 1980s. the process of liberalization and the transparency in operation has raised the interest of foreign investors in India. Till 1978 there were only 8 recognized exchanges in India. Initially the exchange operated on an outcry system i.e. manual system of trading Due to increase in the trading volumes, the number of issuer increased substantially, and the birth of NSES highly transparent automated system come into existence Even then there was an increase in paper work causing a gridlock at every stage in the stock market This delays the clearance and settlement of traders, registration of securities in the shareholder name and due this it increased the back office paper work intermediaries These outdated systems have increased settlement risks and have rendered the implementation of a delivery of a versus payment system impossible. National Stock Exchange of India Limited to provide electronic depository facilities for securities traded in the equity and the debt market. NSDL commenced its operations in the year 1996 and is the first depository in India.

A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants
INTRODUCTION Dematerialization or "Demat" is a process whereby your securities like shares, debentures etc, are converted into electronic data and stored in computers by a Depository. Securities registered in your name are surrendered to depository participant (DP) and these are sent to the respective companies who will cancel them after "Dematerialization" and credit your depository account with the DP. The securities on Dematerialization appear as balances in your depository account. These balances are transferable like physical shares. If at a later date, you wish to have these "Demat" securities converted back into paper certificates, the Depose Depository functions like a securities bank, where the dematerialized physical securities are traded and held in custody. This facilitates faster, risk free and low cost settlement.
In order to dematerialize certificates; an investor will have to first open an account with a DP & then request for the dematerialization of certificate by filling up a dematerialization request form (DRF), which is available with DP & submitting the same along with the physical certificates. The investor has to ensure that before the certificate are handled over to the DP For demat, they are defaced by marking “Surrendered for dematerialisation� on the face of the certificates. Depository is much like a bank and perform many activities that are similar to a bank.

Transacting the depository way has several advantages over the traditional system of transacting using share certificates. Some of the benefits are: •
Trading in demat segment completely eliminates the risk of bad deliveries, which in turn eliminates all cost and wastage of time associated with follow up for rectification. This reduction in risk associated with bad delivery has lead to reduction in brokerage to the extent of 0.5% by quite a few brokerage firms.
•
In case of transfer of electronic shares, you save 0.5% in stamp duty.
•
You also avoid the cost of courier/ notarization/ the need for further follow-up with your broker for shares returned for company objection
•
In case the certificates are lost in transit or when the share certificates become mutilated or misplaced, to obtain duplicate certificates, you may have to spend at
Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com

A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants least Rs500 for indemnity bond, newspaper advertisement etc, which can be completely eliminated in the demat form. •
You can also receive your bonuses and rights into your depository account as a direct credit, thus eliminating risk of loss in transit.
•
You can also expect a lower interest charge for loans taken against demat shares as compared to the interest for loan against physical shares. This could result in a saving of about 0.25% to 1.5%. Some banks have already announced this.
•
RBI has increased the limit of loans against dematerialized securities as collateral to Rs2mn per borrower as against Rs1mn per borrower in case of loans against physical securities.
•
RBI has also reduced the minimum margin to 25% for loans against dematerialized securities as against 50% for loans against physical securities.
In short the advantages of opening a demat account are Shorter settlements thereby enhancing liquidity No stamp duties on transfer of securities held in demat form. Elimination of risk associated with physical certificated such as bad delivery, fake securities. Reduction in handling large volume of paper; Nomination facility Transmission of securities (such as shares, debentures, bonds and units) is done by DP eliminating the need to correspond with each company separately.

A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants Change of name, address, dividend mandate, registration of power of attorney, transmission etc. can be effected across companies held in demat form by a single instruction to the DP Though under the Depositories Act, 1996, there is no compulsion and the investor can hold shares either in physical or in dematerialized form. But according to Sebi’s directive certain shares have to be traded compulsorily in dematerialized form where the seller cannot sell in physical form. However, after he has bought the shares the investor can ask for rematerialization of the shares. The Depository Account must be opened with a Depository Participant. NSDL interfaces with investor trough Depository Participants (DPS). A list of names and addresses of all Authorized DP’s is available with the NSDL and CDSL and one can meet any of these DP’s place and make a choice at your based on your comfort and convenience. Opening a depository account is as simple as opening a bank account. One can open a depository account with any DP. To open a Depository Account, you have to submit the duly filled in Account Opening form along with the following documents: • •
Fill up the account opening form, which is available with the DP. Residential Proof - Copy of Ration Card, Passport, Driving License, Telephone Bill, Electricity Bill or Rental Agreement.
•
Sign the DP-client agreement, which defines the rights and duties of the DP and the person wishing to open the account.

A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants •
Receive your client account number (client ID).
•
This client ID along with your DP ID gives you a unique identification in the depository system. There is no restriction on the number of depository accounts a person can open.
However, if your existing physical shares are in joint names, you have to open the account in the same order of names before you submit your share certificates for demat. A sole holder of the share certificates cannot add more names as joint holders at the time of dematerializing his share certificates. However, if the investor wants to transfer the ownership from his individual name to a joint name, he should first open an account as the sole holder (account A) and dematerialize the share certificates. He should then open another depository account (account B) in which he is the first holder and the other person is the second holder and make an off market transfer of the shares from the account A to account B. The investor will incur a charge on this transaction. Alternatively, the certificates can be transferred to the joint ownership and then sent for Dematerialization. Right now, as per the Companies Act, there is no nomination facility for shares (whether in the physical or in the electronic form). The nomination facility for shares can be availed of only when the relevant provisions in the Companies Act are amended. NSDL captures the details of the nominee when the account is opened so as to offer the facility as soon as the relevant amendments are effected in the Law.

Both buyer and seller may open account either with the same DP or with different DPs. The buyer and seller will trade amongst themselves and later on will exchange money, i.e., settle funds amongst themselves. The selling client would deliver securities from its beneficiary account to the beneficiary account of the buying client. This transfer is effected by the DP of the selling client on the basis of a delivery instruction provided by the selling clients. A diagrammatic illustration of the settlement of an off-market trade in depository is depicted below:

A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants Depository: A Depository is a Company where the shares of an individual are held in the electronic form, at the request of the shareholder. This eliminates the physical form of holding. IDBI, UTI, SBI and NSE promoted the National Securities Depository Limited (NSDL). The Central Securities Depository Limited (CDSL) was promoted by BSE. Your money may be held in the form of liquid cash at your home or may be deposited in a bank. The bank holds your funds in the electronic form and subsequently debits or credits the account. Depending on your issuance of cheques or deposit of cheques. The advantages of safety and convenience of dealing with a Bank overweigh the reasons for holding liquid cash in your home. Your financial assets such as Equity Shares may be compared to the above example. You may hold physical share certificates in your home and be exposed to the various risks of lack of safety, mutilation, loss etc. Alternatively, you may deposit your shares in an organization called a Depository, which holds your shares in the electronic form. You can dematerialize shares of only those companies that have signed agreement to dematerialize their shares with the depository. You cannot dematerialize shares if they are not in your name, i.e. shares held in street name (market deliveries) cannot be dematerialized. However, when you send shares to the registrar to be transferred to your name you can request that you want those shares in dematerialized form. Karvy

Mumbai - IN302470 In India depositories are required to be registered with SEBI and are governed by the provision of the Depositories Act, 1996 and regulation and bylaws framed for depositories by the SEBI. The depositories work in a completely computerized environment with electronic linkages with the point of origination for the transactions that may cause the change in ownership of securities. A depository will be electrically linked with the Register of the members maintained by the company/registrar, clearing and settlement system in the stock exchanges, stock lending organization (if in existence), custodians of securities, depository participants and brokers. Function of Depository Dematerlisation: one of the primary functions of depository is to eliminate or minimize the movement of the physical securities in the market. This is achieved through dematerialisation of securities. Dematerlisation is the process of converting securities held in physical form into holdings in book entry form. Account Transfer: The depository gives effect to all transfers resulting from the settlement of trade and other transactions between various beneficial owners by recording entries in the accounts of such beneficial owners. Transfer and Registration: A transfer is the legal change of ownership of a security in the records of the issuer. For effecting a transfer, certain legal steps have to be taken like endorsement, execution of a transfer of security occurs merely by passing book entries in the records of the depositories, on the instructions of the beneficial owners.

A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants Corporate Actions: A depository may handle corporate actions in two ways. In the first case, it merely provides information to the issuer about the persons entitled to receive corporate benefits. In the other case, depository itself takes the responsibility of distribution of corporate benefits. Pledge and hypothecation: Depositories allow the securities placed with them to be used as collateral securities in physical form to the lender or its custodian. These securities are verified for authenticity and often need to be transferred in the name of lender. This has a time and money cost by way of transfer fees or stamp duty. If the borrower wants to substitute the Pledging/Hypothecating the securities makes the process very simple and collateral accounting through book entries in the records of the depository. Linkage with clearing system: whether it is a separating clearing corporation attached to a stock exchange or a clearing house (department) of a stock exchange, the clearing system performs the function of ascertaining the pay-in (sell) or pay-out (buy) of brokers who have traded on the stock exchange. Actual delivery of securities to the clearing system from the selling and delivery of securities from the clearing system to the buying broker is done by the depository. To achieve this, depositories and the clearing system should be electronically linked.

A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants Depository Participant: Depository Participant (DP) is an organisation that acts as an Agent of the Depository and interacts with the investor. A DP is responsible for maintaining your securities account and operating it only under your written instructions. The Depositories Acts mandates that investors can use Depository facilities only through DP’s. The distribution channel and geographical spread of the DP’s offices allows you to access the Depository at a low cost. DP can only access their own clients' information. They cannot access the client information of any other DP. The information of your holdings in the account is completely confidential& it is similar to your account balance in a bank. You can select your DP to open a demat account just like you select a bank for opening a savings account. Some of the important factors for selection of a DP can be: 1. Convenience - Proximity to your office/residence, business hours. 2. Comfort - Reputation of the DP, past association with the organisation, whether the DP is in a position to give the specific service you may need? 3. Cost - The service charges levied by DP and the service standards. Individual accounts can be opened by Ordinary Resident, HUF, NRI ~ Repatriable and NRI Non-Repatriable. Body Corporate, Banks, Trusts, Financial Institutions, Foreign Institutional Investors, and Overseas Commercial Banks etc can open corporate Accounts. An account can be opened in the name of HUF in a similar way to individual account and mentioning the account category as HUF. However, Kartha of HUF will sign the application, agreement and all transactions under the account

4 Steps: 1. Client/ investor submits the DRF (Demat Request Form) and Physical certificates to DP. DP checks whether the securities are available for demat. Client defaces the certificates by stamping ‘Surrender for Dematerlisation’. DP punches two holes on the name of the company and draws two parallel lines across the face of the certificate. 2.DP enters the demat request in his system to be sent to NSDL. DP dispatches the physical certificates along with the DRF to the R & T Agent. 3.NSDL records the details of the electronic request in the system and forwards the request to the R&T Agent. 4.R&T Agent, on receiving the physical documents and the electronic request, verifies and checks them. Once the R&T Agent is satisfied, Dematerialisation of the concerned securities is electronically confirmed to NSDL. 5.NSDL credits the dematerialized securities to the beneficiary account of the investor and intimates the DP electronically. The DP issues a statement of transaction to the client.

The name of client on DRF and the certificates is exactly the same as in the client’s account in DPM. However, minor variations in the name (like abbreviated name, initials in the place of first name, middle name, minor name mistake in the name) may be permitted if it can be reasonably established that both names are of the same person. The permitted variations refer to initials not being spelt out fully or put prior to after the surname. In such cases, if the signature on the DRF matches the specimen signature available with the DP, the securities can be considered for demat.

Clients should be helped in filling up the demat request properly. Demat rejection causes great inconvenience to the client. DP should attend to this area with care and caution.

Settlement The settlement of trades in the stock exchanges is undertaken by the clearing corporation (CC)/ clearing house (CH) of the corresponding stock exchanges. While the settlement of dematerialized securities is effected through depository, the funds settlement is effected through the clearing banks. The clearing members directly with the CC/ CH settle the physical securities. Exclusive demat segment follows rolling settlement (T+5) cycle and the unified (erstwhile - physical) segment follows account period settlement cycle. In case of rolling settlement cycle, the account period is reduced to one day. •

A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants Selling And Buying Of Shares: Selling dematerialized shares in stock exchanges is similar to the procedure for selling physical shares. Instead of delivering physical shares to the broker, you instruct your DP to debit your account with the number of shares sold by you and credit your broker's clearing account. For this, a delivery instruction has to be given to your DP in a standardized format, which will be available with your DP. In short, for selling demat shares; •
You can sell shares in any of the stock exchanges linked to a depository through a broker of your choice.
•
Give an instruction to your DP to debit your account and credit your broker's clearing member pool account. (this is a depository account used exclusively for settling transactions by a broker)

A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants Buying Demat Shares: The procedure for buying dematerialized shares in stock exchanges is similar to the procedure for buying physical shares. When you want to purchase shares in electronic form, you have to instruct your broker to purchase the dematerialized shares from the stock exchanges linked to a depository. Once the order is executed, you have to instruct your DP (vide a simple format which is available with the DP) to receive securities from your broker's clearing account. Alternatively, you may give a standing instruction to receive credits into your account and do away with giving a separate receipt instruction each time you expect a credit. You have to ensure that your broker too gives a matching instruction to his DP to transfer the shares purchased on your behalf into your depository account. You should also ensure that your broker transfers the shares purchased from his clearing account to your depository account, before the book closure. This is really important because shares that remain in the clearing account of the broker on the book closure/ record date will not be eligible for corporate benefits. In brief, the transactions relating to purchase of shares are: •
You can purchase shares in any of the stock exchanges connected to a depository through a broker of your choice and make a payment to your broker;
•
Your broker receives credit in his clearing account with his DP on the pay-out day;
•
Broker gives instructions to his DP to debit his clearing account and credit your account;

A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants •
You instruct your DP for receiving credit into your depository account either through a specific receipt instruction or using the "standing instruction" facility.
•
In case you are not using the "standing instruction" facility then, your depository account is credited only if the instructions given by you and your broker match.
Other Services Besides demat and trading Depositories also offer other services, these are: o Pledging/ hypothecation of dematerialized securities. o Electronic credit in public offerings of companies. o Receipt of non-cash corporate benefits such as bonus, rights in electronic form. o Stock lending and borrowing. o Transmission of securities. Pledging: Dematerialized shares could be pledged; in fact, this is more advantageous as compared to pledging share certificates. To pledge your Demat shares •
Both you (pledgor) as well as the lender (pledgee) must have depository accounts.
•
You must initiate the pledge by submitting the details of the securities to be pledged in a standard format (available with DPs).
•
The pledgee should confirm the request through his DP.
•
Once this is done, your securities are pledged Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com

A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants •
All commercial documentation between the pledgor and the pledgee are handled outside the depository system.
After you have repaid your loan, you can request for a closure of pledge by instructing your DP through a standard format. The pledgee on receiving the repayment as well as the request for closure of pledge will instruct his DP accordingly. Even the locked-in securities can be pledged, however they cannot be invoked before the lock-in release date. Even after the securities are pledged, the pledgor continues to remain the beneficiary holder of those securities and will receive benefits of a corporate action, if any. Initial Public Offerings: Credits for public offers can be directly received into demat account. In the public issue application form of depository eligible companies, there will be a provision to indicate the manner in which securities should be allotted to the applicant. All you have to do is to mention your client account number and the name and identification number of your DP. Any allotment due to you will be credited into your account. If the applicant is allotted securities in dematerialized form, but the details regarding the beneficiary account are incomplete/ wrong, the person will get physical delivery of allotted securities.

Page. No47
A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants If securities were allotted in the dematerialized form, these would be credited to applicant’s account any day between allotment date and listing date, at the discretion of the company. The issuer company/ their R&T agent will forward the applicant the allotment advice giving the number of shares allotted in dematerialized form. Through this you can come to know that you have been allotted shares. An amendment to the company law requiring all future public issues above Rs100mn to compulsorily offer securities in dematerialized form is awaiting legislative approval. After this all the issues above Rs100mn will require investors to trade only in demat way. Partly paid up and fully paid up shares in the depository, will be given separate ISINs (International Securities Identification Number). These are also traded separately at the stock exchanges. The company issues call notices to the beneficial holders of securities in the electronic form. The details of such beneficial holders will be provided to the issuer/ their R&T agent by NSDL. After the call money realization, issuer/ their R&T agent will electronically convert the partly paid up shares to fully paid up shares. Receipt Of Cash/ Non-Cash Benefits: When any corporate event such as rights or bonus or dividend is announced for a particular security, depository will give the details of all the clients having electronic holdings in that security as of the record date to the registrar. The registrar will then calculate the corporate benefits due to all the shareholders. The

Page. No48
A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants disbursement of cash benefits such as dividend/ interest will be done directly by the registrar. In case of non-cash benefits, depository will directly credit the securities entitlements in the depository accounts of all those clients who have opted for electronic allotment based on the information provided by the registrar. The bonus/ rights issue against holding in dematerialized form can be either in the physical/ dematerialized form as per the choice of the investor. If no choice is given, by default, the securities will be issued in the physical form. Even if an investor has holdings in physical form, he can receive the bonus/ rights issue against this in the dematerialized form. In case of fractional part, as in the physical segment, it would be paid in cash and the remaining whole part would be credited to the investors account. The statement of holding and transaction statement is sent by the investors DP, it will show the bonus/ rights credit into investor’s account. This report is sent to the investor every fifteen days. In addition, an allotment advise will be send by the issuer/ their R&T agent for bonus/ rights entitlement. Stock Lending and borrowing: Through the depository account securities in the demat form can be easily lent/ borrowed. Securities can be lent or borrowed in electronic form through an approved intermediary, who has opened a special 'intermediary' account with a DP.

A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants To Lend Securities: You have to instruct your DP through a standard format (which is available with your DP) to deposit your securities with the intermediary. If the intermediary accepts your deposit of securities, the securities will be moved from your account into the intermediary's account. If you wish to recall the securities lent by you, you can make a request vide a standard format available with your DP. To Borrow Securities: You have to instruct your DP through a standard format (which is available with your DP) to borrow securities from the intermediary. If the intermediary accepts your request, the securities will be moved from the intermediary's account to your account. If you wish to return the securities borrowed by you, you can make a request vide a standard format available with your DP. Transmission Of Securities: Transmission of securities due to death, lunacy, bankruptcy, and insolvency or by any other lawful means other than transfer is also possible in the depository system. In the case of transmission, the claimant will have to fill in a transmission request form, (which is available with the DP) supported by valid documents. The DP, after ensuring that the application is genuine, will transfer securities to the account of the claimant. For this, the claimant must have a depository account. The major advantage in transmission of dematerialized holdings is that the transmission formalities for all securities held with a DP can be completed in one go, unlike in the case of share certificates, where the claimant will have to interact with each issuing company or its R&T Agent.

In the depository, the depository holds the investor holdings on trust.

Upper limit per claim: Rs200mn.
•
Number of claims allowed: unlimited
•
Minimum value of the claim: Rs150, 000

A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants Besides all these safety measures efforts have been done to make this electronic system foolproof. Demat Shares: Are They 100% Safe When you buy physical shares from the stock market, you could never be certain of the validity of the title of shares. There were many reasons- the sellers' signature did not match, or the certificates were fake, forged or stolen, and so on. Demat shares are supposed to obviate these problems. Buying shares in the demat form always guarantees you a good title as soon as the settlement is over. The biggest attraction of trading in demat shares is that the shares you buy come with a clean title and immediately after the settlement on the relevant stock exchange. Rule 100 of market regulator SEBI determines whether the shares delivered in a settlement, are good or not. Under rule 100, the shares that have been transferred the company can still withdraw any number of times, if a transfer is found to be invalid for any reason. Suppose a sells physical shares to B and B gets them dematerialized. Later B sells the shares in the stock exchange and C buys them. Meanwhile A discovers that his share certificates were stolen and fraudulently sold by someone else. He gets a court order restraining the company from further transferring the shares and attaching them (currently in possession of C). This is known as 'stop transfer'. So C who has bought dematerialized shares is now struck with the shares. He cannot sell these shares since they would be frozen in his account
Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com
Page. No53
A Study of Customer Satisfaction towards Depository Participants In demat shares, pre-demat problems about the validity of a share do not effect the interest of the buyers after dematerialization. Shares go through a verification process at the registrars' before they are dematerialized. Therefore the responsibility lies with the registrar. The registrar must find a remedy if the original transfer of shares, before their dematerialization comers under doubt. But there is a catch. The company and its registrars are not responsible if the reasons for original transfer being invalid were not available at the time of dematerialization. Matters have to be dealt with on a case-to-case basis. Which means that even demat buyer may find that his shares have been frozen in his demat account. This kind of case has to be contested in court by the parties involved. This issue is not directly addressed in The Depositories Act, 1996. Sebi’s regulations on depositories and depository participants also do not mention the issue. Matters get more complex if an investor has traded further in shares of the same company in his demat account. Demat shares are fungible and don’t have distinctive numbers. It is not easy to track the sale or trade of shares after they are dematerialized. In a rare event of your DP going bankrupt or closing the operations, the interests of the investors will be fully protected.
