Products & platforms
Sections ↑Geojit offers exchange trading, demat custody, mutual funds and related investment services. The FLIP platform can support cash, derivatives and MTF only when the relevant account and segment have been activated.[4][8][3]

| Funds and other services | Distribution, advisory or portfolio services through the relevant Geojit entity | Do not infer that every group product sits in the broker account.Source 10Source 3 |
Fees & holding costs
Sections ↑Brokerage must be combined with exchange/statutory charges, GST, DP debit fees, AMC, pledge/MTF costs and physical-service charges. A low percentage brokerage does not cap a per-certificate dematerialisation or transfer cost.[1][5][6][7]
Pricing & charges05

|---|---|---|
| DP sale debit | Securities leave the demat account after a sale | BSDA/RSDA percentage, minimum and cap apply.Source 5Source 6 |
| Off-market transfer | Securities move outside the normal Geojit trade settlement | Receiving-broker and transaction-value rules change the charge.Source 5Source 6 |
| Demat/remat | Paper certificate converted or rematerialised | Per-certificate, minimum and courier charges apply.Source 7 |

Execution & trading rules
Sections ↑Platforms & products07
Platform and order controls
| Route / control | Published capability | Operational limit |
|---|---|---|
| FLIP web | Order entry, market data, positions and account controls | Browser/session connectivity and activated products apply.Source 4 |
| FLIP mobile | Mobile trading with biometric or TOTP 2FA | Biometric cannot cover every multi-account device arrangement.Source 9 |
| MyGeojit | Profile, reports, activations and service requests | Some changes take effect later or require documents.Source 8Source 9 |
| MTF order type | Select MTF for approved securities after activation | Group-1 eligibility and risk controls can change.Source 8 |
Orders remain subject to exchange hours, price bands, margin and system status. Enabling MTF changes the financing and collateral relationship; it does not change a market order into a guaranteed-price instruction.[4][8]
Deposits, withdrawals & transfers
Sections ↑Process08
Cash funding and withdrawal lifecycle
| Stage | Published route | Constraint |
|---|---|---|
| Pay-in from registered bank | Supported transfer route to the trading ledger | Third-party funds and cut-off rules can delay use.Source 10 |
| Payout | Withdrawal of free settled cash to the registered bank | Margin, open orders and settlement blocks reduce availability.Source 10 |
| MTF cash/collateral | Cash and pledged securities support financed trades | Shortfalls can create interest, calls or liquidation.Source 8 |
Transfer terms09
Moving an existing portfolio
| Transfer type | Published treatment | Material consequence |
|---|---|---|
| Broker sale settlement | DP debit after an exchange sale | The DP charge is distinct from brokerage.Source 5Source 6 |
| Off-market / other-broker transfer | Instruction to another demat account | Different percentage/minimum terms apply when receiver is not Geojit.Source 5Source 6 |
| Demat/remat | Physical and electronic form conversion | Certificate and courier charges plus processing time apply.Source 7 |
Trading margin, ledger cash and bank-withdrawable cash must be reconciled. Demat transfers move securities, not acquisition-cost tax advice, and a pledged security cannot be treated as freely transferable until the pledge is released.[10][8][6]
Protection & regulation
Sections ↑Protections & eligibility10
Protection chain

|---|---|---|
| Stock broker/DP | Geojit Investments Limited under current SEBI and depository registrations | Group reputation is not a guarantee of value.Source 3 |
| Depository | NSDL/CDSL beneficial-owner records under the DP relationship | A depository record does not prevent a valid pledge or debit.Source 3 |
| Exchange mechanisms | Investor grievance and protection arrangements under exchange rules | Coverage is event-specific and not ordinary market-loss insurance.Source 10 |
| SCORES/ODR | SEBI complaint facilitation and online dispute process after the entity stage | A complaint filing does not establish liability or compensation.Source 10Source 11 |
