In overall, transferring shares between Demat accounts is a simple procedure. It is essential to verify whether shares are held by NSDL or CDSL before transferring them. This is so because the transfer method is determined by the broker-affiliated depository.
The transfer will be intra-depository (or off-market) if your new and current brokers are associated with the same depository. On the other hand, there will be an inter-depository transfer if they have connections to separate depositories.
It’s important to remember that fees, taxes, and transaction costs could all be incurred when moving shares between Demat accounts. Depending on the Depository Participant (DP) and the kind of shares being transferred, these costs may change. For this reason, it’s best to confirm with your DP whether any costs apply before starting the transfer. Furthermore, it is usually advised to verify the information supplied twice during the transfer procedure in order to prevent mistakes.
