  • The major co-parcener signatures are required on the Demat Debit and Pledge Instruction (DDPI) and annexure page.
  • IL&FS closure forms, Zerodha demat application, annexures, KYC page & supporting documents must be signed by Karta and have the HUF seal.
  • This transfer would be considered a closure cum transfer, i.e., closure of the account with IL&FS and transfer out the shares, for which there are no charges.
  • If the IL&FS demat account is linked to the Zerodha trading account, holdings cannot be seen or sold on Console and Kite, respectively. Stocks must first be transferred to Zerodha's demat account.
  • Clients are required to verify the KYC details once the Zerodha demat account is opened. To learn how to update the KYC details, see How to reactivate the Zerodha account?
