The client ID along with the DP ID gives a unique identification in the depository system. Any number of depository accounts can be opened
** After opening an account with the DP the investor should surrender the physical certificates held in his name to a depository participant.
** These certificates will be sent to the respective companies where they will be cancelled after dematerialization and will credit the investors account with the DP
** The securities on dematerialisation will appear as balances in the depository account
** These balances can be transferred like the shares held in physical form.
** Dematerialised shares are in the fungible form and do not have any distinctive or certificate numbers
