You will not be able to add another person as a joint holder to your existing account. You will have to close your existing account and open a new account as a joint account.

Will I be able to convert by online single holder account into a joint account holder ? If not what can I do about my online account as I can’t even send nomination form to zerodha ho as these services have been suspended ? Will there be additional charges for joint account opening as I have already paid rs 200 for online account . Thanks for help
I have tried calling zerodha but have not got a reply yet . Have also raised the ticket but have not received any response.
Have already explained above, you can’t convert your existing single account to joint account. You will have to close your existing account and open new account as joint account.
The process to open joint account is offline, Read this to know more.
You will be opening new account, so account opening charges will apply.
@siva can you clarify this.
Commodity account opening process for existing account holders is offline, you will have to courior required documents. Once forms are received at Zerodha office, Commodity segment will be activated within 48 hours. You can read more here.
