ICICI Direct assigns a unique demat account number to your demat account at the time of account opening. This account number is a 16 digit alphanumeric code. The first 8 letters is your DP ID and the last 8 digits is your Client ID.

The Client ID along with your DP ID gives you a demat account a unique identification in the depository (CDSL or NSDL) where you have your demat account. All your demat transactions are identified with this demat account number.

Note: The CDSL demat account number is 16-digit numeric code. The NSDL demat account number starts with letter IN and followed by a 14-digit numeric code.
