How to fix a Zerodha account on hold for signature mismatch

A Zerodha application held for signature mismatch is cleared by one of two fixes, and the severity decides which. Zerodha holds the application when the signature is inconsistent across the account-opening forms, or differs from the specimen on record. A minor difference is resolved by raising a ticket with a self-declaration form; a major difference needs the signed forms couriered to Zerodha’s Bengaluru office. Either way, Zerodha emails the exact reason and the document to submit, and the correction must land inside a rectification window of 3 to 15 days, after which the application resets.
