How do I close my demat account?
Please note that once you close your account, you will not be able to reopen it on Share.Market.
If you still wish to proceed, please ensure your account meets the following pre-closure checklist to avoid rejection:
- No active holdings or open positions
- No pending orders or active SIPs.
- Zero balance (settle any negative balance or withdraw remaining funds)
- Download all reports (Ledger, P&L, etc.) for your tax records, as you won’t have access later
If your account has no holdings:
Log in to your Share.Market app (Android) or the web portal.
Tap your profile Icon > Investment and Trading Account.
Select the Demat Account tab and scroll to the very bottom of the page
Tap Close Account > Begin Account Closure
Confirm by tapping CLOSE ACCOUNT again
Enter your feedback and proceed
If your account has holdings and want transfer out:
Follow steps 1–5 above
Select your target depository (CDSL or NSDL).
Enter your target Demat Account ID (where you want to transfer your stocks).
If transferring to NSDL: Upload your Client Master Report
E-sign the account closure form using your Aadhaar and OTP to complete the process
Once submitted, your account closure request will be formally logged into our system, and your account will be closed within 2 working days.
