To start investing in the Indian stock market, every investor must open a Demat Account and a Trading Account to buy, sell, and hold securities seamlessly.
What is a Demat Account?
A Demat Account (Dematerialised Account) is an account used to hold shares, securities, bonds, mutual funds, ETFs, and other financial instruments in electronic form, eliminating the need for physical share certificates.
When an investor buys or sells securities through a Trading Account, the transaction is executed on the stock exchange. As per the standard settlement cycle (T+2), the purchased securities are credited to the investor’s Demat Account within two working days.
What is a Trading Account?
A Trading Account is used to buy and sell shares and other listed securities in the stock market. It acts as a link between your bank account and your Demat Account, enabling smooth trade execution.
You can transfer funds from your bank account to your trading account to place orders. Once the purchase is completed, the securities are credited to your Demat Account as per the settlement cycle.
A Trading Account ensures seamless transactions and efficient stock market investing.
What is Dematerialization?
Dematerialization is the process of converting physical share certificates into electronic form. This allows investors to hold and manage their securities digitally through a Demat Account, ensuring greater safety, convenience, and ease of transactions.

Ans. C-KYC stands for Central KYC, a process storing the KYC records of the customer centrally. The programme was announced by the Government of India in the 2012-13 Union Budget and went live in July 2016. With Central KYC (cKYC) program, once you finish the KYC process with an entity authorized to conduct KYC, it will be sufficient for you to invest in all the other financial products including Mutual Funds.

The client who is desirous of opening an account/trade/deal with the SEBI registered Intermediary shall submit the KYC details through the KYC Registration form and supporting documents. The Intermediary shall perform the initial KYC and upload the details on the system of the KYC Registration Agency (KRA). This KYC information can be accessed by all the SEBI Registered Intermediaries while dealing with the same client.
