At FYERS, adding a nominee to your trading account during the E-sign process is not available, as it is in line with Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) regulations. However, you can still add a nominee to your existing account by following the steps below:
When you're opening an account with FYERS through the E-sign process, you might notice that there’s no option to add a nominee on the digitally signed form. This is because SEBI regulations do not allow nominee information in the digital account opening forms.
To add a nominee to your existing trading account, please follow the detailed instructions in our dedicated support article: How do I add a nominee to my existing trading account?
Assigning a nominee ensures that your investments are managed according to your wishes in the event of unforeseen circumstances. It is strongly recommended to review and update your nominee information periodically.
