Benefits & Features of Opening an Angel One Demat Account

Opening a Demat account with Angel One offers a range of benefits along with useful features for investors.

  • Convenience: Users can trade in different investment options such as shares, stocks, index and gold, bonds, government securities, IPOs, ETFs, NCDs, and mutual funds, all traded on Indian exchanges (BSE/NSE), through a single Demat account with zero paperwork
  • Restrictions with Offline Trading: EBI has permitted trading of up to 500 shares in physical form, which includes an excessive inconvenience of maintenance and tracking. A Demat account removes these restrictions entirely
  • Auto Sync: All transactions done via a Demat account are automatically reflected in real time.
  • Security: Investors need not worry about the safety of physical shareholdings or any frauds that might happen in offline trading.
  • Accessibility: Investors can track and access their portfolios in real time with just a few clicks.
  • Zero Balance Account Opening: Investors can open a Demat account with zero balance, and such accounts can be maintained without holding any securities
  • Consolidation: You can consolidate different portfolios of the same company to create a new portfolio. You can forward the physical certificates along with a letter duly signed seeking consolidation to the RTA of the company.
  • Account Types: A Demat account can take different forms. You can open a joint Demat account, or one in the name of a corporation, multiple accounts, or even in the name of a minor. However, a minor's Demat account will need a guardian to operate it.
  • Transaction Charges: Opening a Demat account comes with its charges, which would involve an annual maintenance fee, and a transaction fee or commission for every transaction carried out by the DP. A fee may also be charged for dematerialisation of shares, depending on the DP. There is no mandate to sustain a minimum balance.
