Overview

An off-market transfer is the movement of securities from one demat account to another without involvement of a stock exchange. Unlike exchange-settled trades (where the clearing corporation facilitates delivery), off-market transfers are direct demat-to-demat instructions settled through the depository (CDSL or NSDL) alone. Common scenarios include transferring shares as a gift, inheritance, restructuring of holdings between family members, or consolidating holdings from multiple demat accounts.

At Zerodha, off-market transfers from a client’s CDSL demat account carry a charge of Rs 25 per instruction or 0.03 percent of the transfer value, whichever is higher, plus 18 percent GST. This charge applies to both transfers initiated via the CDSL easiest portal and those processed through physical Delivery Instruction Slips (DIS) submitted to Zerodha.
