Is It Possible To Open a Non-POA Demat Account at FYERS?
Yes, we offer the flexibility to open a Demat account without submitting a Power of Attorney (POA). In this case, you can trade using an Electronic Delivery Instruction Slip (E-DIS), which securely authorises your transactions without needing physical documentation.
How does a no-POA Demat account work?
- You will need to authorise every delivery-based sell transaction using an OTP-based E-DIS flow.
- This applies to Equity Delivery trades, such as intraday and derivative positions are not impacted.
- The E-DIS process must be completed on each day you wish to sell shares from your holdings.
We have integrated this system to provide users with an efficient and secure way to trade without compromising control or compliance.
E-DIS is a SEBI-compliant alternative to POA and is ideal for investors who prefer not to hand over physical authorisation rights.
