Can I transfer only a part of my holdings?

Yes. You can transfer even a single share if you want. During the transfer, you enjoy full flexibility to choose the quantity and ISIN.

Will my average buy price change after transferring shares?

No. Your average buy price remains the same after you transfer the shares.

Can I transfer shares if the names on both demat accounts are the same but in different order?

In case you hold a joint account, the sequence of names must match in both accounts.

Do transferred shares lose eligibility for bonuses or dividends?

No. The shares remain under your name. So, even if there is a corporate action during the transfer window, you will receive the bonuses, dividends, or splits as usual.

What should I do if the shares don’t appear in my new demat account after the expected time?

First, check the status of the transfer on CDSL EASIEST or NSDL SPEED-e. It will reflect exactly where your request is stuck. However, if the timeline has passed, contact both the DPs with your acknowledgement slip or request number. In most cases, delays happen due to small mismatches in data. Your DP can fix that quickly once flagged.
