How to link a bank account on Zerodha

Fri, 19 Jun 2026 00:00:00 +0000

Linking a bank account on Zerodha means mapping an account you hold in your own name to your trading and demat account , so that pay-ins and payouts settle only to a verified destination. During online signup you enter the account number and the branch IFSC , and a penny drop credits Re 1 to the account and reads back the registered account-holder name, which Zerodha matches to your PAN name. To add or change an account after opening, you raise the request in Zerodha Console , where the same verification runs again. This guide covers the onboarding flow, the Console change flow, the name-match rules, joint-account behaviour, primary versus secondary accounts, and the failures that hold a link up.
