|

IIFL Securities Ltd, a prominent broking and advisory company in India, declared today that 11 lakh frozen Karvy demat account holders can now trade or invest on its portal. The authoritative bid to obtain all demat accounts maintained by Karvy Stock Broking with National Securities Depository Ltd and Central Depository Services Ltd has been won by IIFL Securities. The AUM for Karvy's 11 lakh demat accounts is Rs 3 lakh crore. The bidding procedure, which started in early February, has reportedly marked the end to the plight of 11 lakh investors whose accounts have been frozen for more than a year. Sandeep Bhardwaj, CEO, IIFL Securities' Retail Unit, commented on the victory that "It gives me immense pleasure to welcome all Karvy account holders. Now their accounts are officially unfrozen and they can start trading or investing with IIFL Securities. As a goodwill gesture, we have waived the first year Annual Maintenance Contract charges on your account. Also, trading for the first 30 days through IIFL Markets mobile is free."
