Step-by-Step Guide

Your Account Opening Journey

Follow these 13 simple steps to open your investment account. Each step is quick, secure, and completely digital.

01
Step 1 — Getting Started

Click on "Open Account" Button

Visit the OTM website or click the "Open Account" button on this page. You'll be redirected to the secure Mirae Asset Sharekhan registration portal where your account opening journey begins.

Pro Tip: Keep your PAN card and Aadhaar handy before you begin — this will ensure zero interruptions.
02
Step 2 — Identity

Sign Up & Verify Mobile Number

Enter your active mobile number to create your account. You'll receive a One-Time Password (OTP) on your phone. Enter this OTP to verify and authenticate your mobile number instantly.

Ensure mobile is linked to Aadhaar
OTP is valid for 30 sec
Resend OTP available if not received
03
Step 3 — Communication

Link & Verify Your Email Address

Enter your email address to link it to your investment account. A verification OTP will be sent to your email inbox. Enter the code to confirm your email identity.

Why this matters: All contract notes, trade confirmations, and account statements will be sent to this email.
04
Step 4 — Tax Identity

Link PAN Card to Your Account

Enter your Permanent Account Number (PAN) to link your tax identity. The system will auto-fetch your name and date of birth from the PAN database for instant verification.

PAN is mandatory for all trading accounts
Auto-verification through NSDL database
05
Step 5 — Face Verification

Complete Selfie Verification

Take a clear selfie photo using your device's camera. This is used for In-Person Verification (IPV) as required by SEBI regulations. Ensure good lighting and a clear background.

Quick Tip: Remove glasses, hats, or face coverings. Use natural daylight for the best result.
06
Step 6 — Customization

Select Investment & Trading Preferences

Choose the segments you want to trade in. You can select from Equity, Derivatives (F&O), Currency, Commodity, and more. Customize your trading preferences based on your investment goals.

Equity & Mutual Funds
Futures & Options (F&O)
Currency & Commodity Trading
07
Step 7 — Compliance

Income Proof for Derivative Trading

If you've selected F&O / Derivative segments, you'll need to upload income proof as per SEBI guidelines. This is required to verify your financial capability for derivatives trading.

Latest ITR Acknowledgement
Last 6-month bank statement
Latest salary slip (if salaried)
Note: This step is only required if you opt for Derivative trading. For equity-only accounts, skip this step.
08
Step 8 — Banking

Link Your Bank Account

Connect your bank account for seamless fund transfers. This is where your deposits and withdrawals will be routed securely.

A

Add Bank Details & Verify

Enter your bank account number, IFSC code, and account holder name. The system may use penny-drop verification or NPCI validation to confirm your bank details are correct and active.

B

Upload Cancelled Cheque

Upload a clear image of your cancelled cheque leaf. This serves as proof of your bank account and is required for regulatory compliance. If you don't have a cheque book, a recent bank statement showing your account details can be used as an alternative.

09
Step 9 — Profile Setup

Complete Your Investment Profile

Fill in your personal details to complete your investment profile. This includes your address, occupation, annual income range, trading experience, and other details required for regulatory compliance.

Permanent address & correspondence address
Occupation and annual income declaration
Marital status and political exposure declaration
10
Step 10 — Authentication

Signature Verification

Draw or upload your signature digitally. This signature will be used on all your official trading documents and will serve as your authorized signature for your investment account.

Pro Tip: Sign on a white paper with a dark pen and take a clear photo — or use the on-screen signature pad for a digital signature.
11
Step 11 — Nominee

Add Your Nominee

Designate a nominee for your investment account. In case of any unforeseen circumstances, the nominee will be the authorized person to claim the assets in your account.

Nominee name, relationship & contact details
You can add up to 3 nominees
Allocation percentage for each nominee
12
Step 12 — Finalization

Aadhaar-Based e-Sign via OTP

This is the final verification step. Your application form will be presented for review. Once you confirm, an Aadhaar-based OTP will be sent to your Aadhaar-linked mobile number for digitally signing the application.

Important: This OTP will come from UIDAI (Aadhaar authority) — not from OTM or Sharekhan. Ensure your Aadhaar-linked mobile is active.
