Zerodha to help investors dematerialise old share certificates, no account needed: Nithin Kamath

India’s largest retail brokerage Zerodha has launched a dedicated initiative to assist investors in converting old physical share certificates into digital demat format, even if they are not Zerodha customers. The move comes amid rising concerns about stranded legacy investments, especially those inherited through family holdings.

Zerodha co-founder Nithin Kamath announced the initiative on social media, stating that the company receives numerous queries from individuals who have stumbled upon physical share certificates belonging to their parents or grandparents.
