Demat Debit and Pledge Instruction (DDPI) can be activated on FYERS through two modes, online using Aadhaar based e-Sign or offline by submitting a signed physical form. Online activation is free and faster, while offline activation carries a one time charge of ₹150. Below are the detailed steps for both methods along with common troubleshooting scenarios.
Activate DDPI Online
You can activate DDPI online using either the FYERS App or FYERS Web. The process is fully digital and typically gets completed within 24 to 48 working hours. DDPI activation is a one time process and once enabled, it is valid across all FYERS platforms.

Activate DDPI Offline
You can activate DDPI offline by submitting a signed physical form. The processing time is up to 7 working days. This is also a one time process and applies across all FYERS platforms once completed.
