How can I transfer shares from my Kotak Securities demat account to another demat account offline?

You can transfer shares from your Kotak Securities account to another NSDL/CDSL demat account by submitting the DIS (depository instruction slip) to our office.

Once your DIS is received, we will commence the transfer process. The Depository (NSDL/CDSL) will send a link to your registered email ID and mobile number. You will also be sent an OTP. To complete the transfer, you will need to provide the OTP on the link that is sent by the NSDL/CDSL before 9pm on the executed date.

Note:

Please note that you are required to submit a request to KSL in attached format (NSDL form) (CDSL form) in order to add a beneficiary to your demat account for the purpose of off market transfer. Upon submitting the request, KSL shall submit the information to your Depository. The Depository shall thereafter send you a link on registered email and mobile number and you are required to authenticate it via OTP. Only post completing these steps your beneficiary will be recorded in the Depository. Kindly note that any off market transfer shall not be processed unless the beneficiary is added by you. You may read the circulars here (NSDL circular) (CDSL circular).
