Demat account is required for equity trading.

Zerodha is having tie up with IL&FS to open demat account. Yearly maintanence charges around 400 rupees. It will take around 5 to 10 days to open the account.

If you have other demat account you can link it to zerodha, but you cannot take deliveries directly. Hence it is better if you open one with zerodha, while you open your trading account.
