while we wait for Sachin to respond. Here's what i did to close my ILFS demat account.
Again to make sure ILFS did their job and there won't be unnecessary "charges" in the future...i tried to login to ILFS site - and got confirmation that my a/c is closed....
Hope it helps.
- I emailed Zerodha about closer of demat only. The responded asking me to contact ILFS via email - [email protected]
- I emailed ILFS asking for procedure and also if any amount was due.
- Received reply from ILFS with a pdf a/c closure document and the due amount.
- I paid the due online. Emailed the screenshot of payment and asked them to update the same. Got response that the same was done.
- Then I took print out of closure form; couriered it to Mumbai with Attn: the name of person who responded to my emails.
- Followed up with courier details.
- Again in couple of days, emailed asking if they received my courier and if the a/c was closed. Received email confirmation.
- Checked Zerodha BO and the demat details were still showing.
- Forwarded ILFS email to zerodha informing about demat a/c closure and that the same needs to be removed from BO.
- Got confirmation from zerodha in couple of days and the same has been updated in my BO.
