What Is Dematerialization?
The conversion or transformation of physical share certificates of a company to an electronic form is termed “Dematerialization of physical shares.”
Before the dematerialization of securities, investors have to open a DEMAT account with a depository. After converting paper shares to DEMAT, the dematerialized physical shares can be securely held in a DEMAT account. Converting physical shares to DEMAT allows investors to conduct trades conveniently with partner traders.
