Q1 |
Does
the applicant get preference in allotment
if he applies in dematerialised form?
|
| |
The basis of
allotment is independent of the form
(physical/ dematerialised) in which
securities are applied. Thus the applicant
won't get preference in allotment
if he applies for securities in dematerialised
form. |
|
Q2 |
In
case the applicant applies for dematerialised
securities without having a depository
account, will NSDL open a beneficiary
account to credit these?
|
| |
No, in such
case the securities would be allotted
in the physical form by default. Depository
account can be opened only by the
prospective account holder or his
power of attorney. |
|
Q3 |
If
the applicant is allotted securities
in dematerialised form, but the details
regarding my beneficiary account are
incomplete/ wrong, will he get physical
delivery of allotted securities?
|
| |
Yes, securities
would be despatched in the physical
form. |
|
Q4 |
If
the applicant is allotted securities
in dematerialised form, when will
he get electronic credit in his account?
|
| |
If securities
are allotted in the dematerialised
form, these would be credited to applicants
account any day between allotment
date and listing date, at the discretion
of the company. |
|
Q5 |
How
will the applicant come to know that
his application for public issue in
electronic form has been accepted?
|
| |
The issuer company/
their R&T agent will forward the

the number of shares allotted in dematerialised
form. |
|
Q6 |
Is
it compulsory for a company making
public issue of any security of rupees
ten crore or more to issue the same
only in dematerialised form?

an amendment to the company law requiring
all future public issues above Rs 10
crore to compulsorily offer securities
in dematerialised form is awaiting
legislative approval. |
