Under the new norms, depository participants would be required to have only single certificate of registration issued by the SEBI
Seeking to simplify procedural requirements, market regulator Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) is planning to put in place a one—time single registration process for depository participants (DPs) to operate on both depositories.
The proposal, which would replace the current practice of requiring separate registration certificate to operate in on both depositories, National Securities Depository Ltd (NSDL) and Central Depository Service Ltd (CDSL), would be discussed in SEBI’s board meeting on 19th November, according to official sources.
The new system would ensure cost efficiency, avoidance of multiple due diligence process and prevent duplication of registration process.
Under the new norms, DPs would be required to have only single certificate of registration issued by the SEBI.
A unique registration number without indicating the name of the depository on the registration certificate would be issued to the depository participants. In case the DP wishes to act as a participant with other depository, the same would be processed by the other depository under intimation to SEBI.
In October, SEBI had notified new norms that will require stock brokers and clearing entities to have one—time single registration process for operating across different bourses.
