A Client Master Report (CMR) is a digitally signed PDF certificate issued by a broker to a client with the details of their demat account, such as demat ID, date of birth, bank details, nomination details etc.
You can use your CMR copy to transfer stocks¹ in your demat account from one broker to another.

regulations,
a digitally signed CMR is as good as a physical CMR for off-market and online transfers. To transfer shares via closure cum transfer from your previous broker to Zerodha, you submit the closure form and Zerodha CMR copy to your previous broker.
