CDSL – Stock for our children

No doubt, NSDL has more market share and also handles majority of the volumes. However there are some positives with CDSL like

1. Clients (Companies/Brokers/MF’s etc) won’t switch to NSDL post listing as it’s a complex process.
2. The charges are less with CDSL hence clients going to stick with it
3. Most of the discount brokers (where the retail volumes are) are with CDSL hence steady income and future growth is somewhat certain.
4. NSDL charges some premium hence only biggies my stick with them

• NSDL is not a new company to grab the current market share of CDSL post listing.

My two cents and happy to views/comments.
