SEBI has mandated dematerialization for AIFs. If you have a scheme that continues beyond April 30, 2024, you need to begin the process now.

There are several activities to be accomplished before ticking the DMAT box in the Compliance Test Report you will be submitting in December 23.

However, we have simplified the entire process and made it a seamless transition.

At a high level, there are 2 parts to this:

• Part 1: Enable your company and schemes for DMAT.
• Part 2: Enable DMAT facilities for your investors.

Part 1

You need to approach depositories and get ISINs for all your schemes. You need to fill the Master Creation Form, enclose various documents along with scheme data, pay the fees and submit the form.

In case you have not seen the detailed process note, please do one of the following:

• Write to [email protected]
• Visit www.validusfintech.com/GetDigital
• WhatsApp GetDigital to 9000900118
• Give a missed call to 9000900118.

We will mail you to get a copy of starter kit. You will find everything that you need.

Part 2

Once your schemes are DMAT enabled, you will receive ISIN numbers for each scheme.

End to end DMAT process requires several changes to your business applications and CRM systems. In case you have signed up a SEBI licensed RTA, they may have initiated this process.
