If the DP ID is only numeric, it is approved by CDSL. However, if it is alphanumeric, it is approved by NSDL.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Above is an example of a Demat account number issued by NSDL.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Importance_of_Client_ID_in_Stock_Market_Trading_Investments\"><\/span><b>Importance of Client ID in Stock Market Trading &amp; Investments<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><b>Client ID in Demat Account number<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> plays a vital role in making the account actually unique for the investors.
