Explanation

SEBI prescribes a Rights and Obligations document that sets out the rights and duties of brokers, sub-brokers and clients, and it must be given to the client. A power of attorney is optional and is not the standard agreement. The risk disclosure document is a separate mandatory document and does not itself set out the mutual rights and obligations. A DDPI relates to demat operations.
