What is the procedure for rematerialisation of shares?

Rematerialisation is the process whereby securities held electronically in a demat account are converted back into physical paper certificates. This process is typically initiated when a demat account holder wishes to revert to holding physical certificates for their securities.

 

Following is the step-by-step procedure for rematerialisation of shares with 5paisa 

1. Submission of Rematerialisation Request Form (RRF):

   - The first step in rematerialisation is for the demat account holder to submit a duly signed Rematerialisation Request Form (RRF) to 5paisa, their Depository Participant (DP).

   - If the demat account holder has appointed a Power of Attorney (POA) holder, the RRF can also be signed by the POA holder. However, it's essential that any POA is registered with the Issuer/Registrar and Transfer Agent (RTA).

2. Verification by DP:

   - Upon receiving the RRF, 5paisa will verify the form for completeness and accuracy.

   - Once verified, 5paisa will generate the rematerialisation request in their system.

3. Transmission to Issuer/RTA:

   - After generating the demat request, 5paisa will forward it to the respective Issuer or RTA for further processing.

   - The Issuer/RTA is responsible for confirming the rematerialisation request and initiating the necessary actions to convert the electronic securities into physical form.

4. Debiting Demat Account:

   - Upon confirmation by the Issuer/RTA, the balance of securities to be rematerialised will be debited from the demat account of the account holder.

5. Issuance of Physical Certificates:

   - Subsequently, the Issuer/RTA will issue the securities in physical form directly to the demat account holder.
