Overview

The Console Holdings report is a snapshot of the securities held in a Zerodha client’s demat account at a given point in time. It is accessible through Zerodha Console and presents the client’s equity and ETF portfolio in a structured tabular format, showing quantity, average acquisition cost, current market price, market value, and unrealised gain or loss for each holding.

The Holdings report draws data from two sources: the depository participant (DP) records maintained by CDSL (or NSDL for accounts opened on the NSDL platform) and the average cost basis computed from the Tradebook. The combination produces a portfolio view that is both live (market prices update during trading hours) and historically informed (cost basis is maintained from the date of purchase).
