If the deadline had not been extended and the KYC attributes were not complied with, then the account would have become deactivated. Further, an individual would not be able to trade in the stock market. Even if an individual buys shares of a particular company, these shares could not have been transferred to his/her account, till the time KYC attributes were updated and verified.Many stockbrokers have been sending communications to their clients to update the required KYC attributes to avoid getting their accounts deactivated. Now with an extended timeline, account holders who have yet not updated their KYC details now have an additional three months to avoid getting their demat and trading accounts deactivated.Demat account holders should keep in mind that mobile number and email ID for KYC compliance have to be verified. Till the time mobile number and email ID are not verified, the demat account will remain under 'Pending for Activation'. Stock brokers will not activate the demat account till the time mobile number and email ID are verified. This is done so as to ensure that timely communications can be sent to the investor.
