To enhance operational efficiency and reduce the risk to clients’ securities, markets regulator Sebi on Thursday proposed making the process of direct payout of such securities to the client’s account mandatory.
Currently, the clearing corporation credits the pay-out of securities in the pool account of the broker, who then credits the same to the respective client’s demat accounts.
Further, a facility of direct delivery to investors was introduced in February 2001.
“It has been decided that the process of securities payout directly to the client account shall now be mandatory,” the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Sebi) said in its consultation paper.
The securities for payout should be credited directly to the respective client’s demat account by the clearing corporations.
Moreover, clearing corporations should provide a mechanism for Trading Member(TM)/clearing members (CM) to identify the unpaid securities and funded stocks under the margin trading facility.
