The use of DDPI will be limited only for two purposes -: Forst Purpose is for the transfer of securities held in the beneficial owner account of the client towards stock exchange related deliveries or settlement obligations arising out of trades executed by such a client. Second Purpose is for pledging/re-pledging of securities in favour of the Trading Member(TM)/Clearing Member (CM) for the purpose of meeting margin requirements of the client.
