Many investors still hold old physical share certificates that were issued before investments were maintained electronically. Converting these physical securities into a Demat account can make them easier to hold, manage and transact, while also helping investors update their records.
Our Physical to Demat Shares Service provides assistance throughout the dematerialisation process. We help shareholders review their physical certificates and supporting documents and understand the requirements for submitting a dematerialisation request through the appropriate Depository Participant (DP).
In cases where there are discrepancies in the shareholder's name, address, signature, KYC details or other records, additional documentation or corrective procedures may be required before the securities can be dematerialised. We assist in identifying such requirements and organising the necessary paperwork.
We aim to make the conversion process simpler and more organised for shareholders holding old physical securities. Acceptance of the dematerialisation request is subject to verification by the concerned company, RTA, Depository Participant and applicable regulatory requirements.

Share certificates can sometimes be lost, misplaced, damaged or destroyed, making it difficult for shareholders to manage their investments. In such circumstances, shareholders may need to follow the prescribed procedure for obtaining duplicate certificates or resolving the corresponding security records.
Our Duplicate Shares Issuance Service assists shareholders in understanding the requirements for replacing lost or damaged share certificates. We help review the available investment information and identify the documents and declarations that may be required by the concerned company or RTA.
Depending on the circumstances, the process may involve submitting identity and address proofs, ownership records, indemnity documents, affidavits, newspaper advertisements or other supporting documents. We assist clients in organising the required documentation and coordinating with the concerned authority.
The requirements can vary depending on the company, value of the securities, circumstances of the loss and applicable regulations. We therefore evaluate each case individually and provide guidance based on the requirements communicated by the concerned company or RTA.

If shares have been transferred without the shareholder's knowledge or if there is a discrepancy in the ownership records, it is important to review the available documents and transaction history at the earliest opportunity. Unauthorised or disputed transfers may require detailed examination of company records and supporting evidence.
Our service assists shareholders in reviewing the circumstances surrounding a disputed or suspected unauthorised share transfer. We help organise relevant documents such as share certificates, folio statements, transfer records, company correspondence, KYC documents and other available evidence.
We provide guidance regarding the process of approaching the concerned company or RTA and assist with documentation and follow-up. Depending on the nature and complexity of the matter, additional legal or regulatory proceedings may also be required.
Each case is assessed based on its individual facts and available records. While we assist with the documentation and recovery process, the final decision regarding ownership, transfer cancellation or restoration of securities remains with the competent company, authority, tribunal or court as applicable.

Transmission of shares is required when securities held in the name of a deceased shareholder need to be transferred to the nominee, legal heir or other eligible successor. Unlike a normal sale or transfer, transmission is generally based on the succession of ownership following the death of the shareholder.
Our Transmission of Shares Recovery Service assists nominees and legal heirs in understanding the documentation and process required to transmit shares. We help organise documents such as the death certificate, share certificates, PAN and identity documents, nomination details, legal heir documents and other records required by the concerned company or RTA.
Where the investment is old, records are incomplete or there are multiple legal heirs, the transmission process can become more complex. We assist in identifying the additional documentation that may be required and provide guidance on the appropriate process for addressing such situations.
Our objective is to make the transmission and recovery process more structured and convenient for families and eligible successors. The final transmission is subject to verification, applicable regulations and approval by the concerned company, RTA, depository or other competent authority.
