What is a Demat Account?

A Demat account (short for Dematerialized account) is similar to a bank account – it is used to hold investments in an electronic form. An online Demat account may be used to hold shares or stocks, mutual funds, government securities, ETFs, and bonds.

In short, it is a tool that maximises your wealth & safekeeping; Demat accounts simplify and accelerate share trading procedures. Besides, it also mitigates challenges and risks one may experience with physical share certificates.
So, are you planning to invest in the share market? If yes, it has now become mandatory to open online Demat accounts. 

Back then, shares used to be held in traditional forms through share certificates. But today, the whole process made sharing trading difficult. 

In short, dematerialisation is the process that converts the physical share certificates and transforms them into an electrical form. Demat stands for dematerialisation since investors need to hold these shares & security on virtual platforms. Shares are converted directly into digital format. Then, they are stored in the Demat accounts. 

Its prime objective is to ensure investors do not require having physical shares. It also ensures that they can trade & invest in real-time virtually in their account.

One of the most significant benefits of these accounts is to help users refrain from problems associated with conventional share certificates. Besides, it eliminates risks with forgoing share certificates. In these accounts, it is convenient and easy to hold securities. There's no stamp duty paid on the shares' transfer. It also reduces risks associated with delayed settlement. Lastly, they are budget-friendly and lessen transaction fees.
