What are the documents required to open minor Demat account with FYERS?

Guardians can open a minor Demat account with FYERS through an online process. However, before starting the application, the guardian must already hold an active FYERS Demat account.

Documents required for opening a minor Demat account

Make sure the following documents are ready before beginning the online application:

  • Minor’s PAN card (mandatory)
  • Minor’s Aadhaar card or passport (for identity and address verification)
  • Birth certificate of the minor or 10th marks card (for date of birth verification)
  • Cancelled cheque or recent bank statement of the minor’s bank account

The minor’s own bank account is required to link with the Demat account for credit of dividends and other benefits.

For complete account setup instructions, refer to our minor Demat account opening procedure.

Ensure all documents are in the minor’s name and clearly legible before uploading them during the online application process.
