A client who holds securities in his demat account wants them back in physical certificate form. Which request should he submit to his DP?

The client should submit a Rematerialisation Request Form (RRF) to his DP. Rematerialisation converts electronic holdings back into physical certificates. The Dematerialisation Request Form is used for the opposite conversion, while transmission and freeze forms serve entirely different account functions.
