More than one CP code

Can an NRI operate more than one orbis account using more than one CP code? If say an NRI already has a cp code with another broker can he open another orbis account with zerodha?

No. You can only have one CP code. This restriction is PAN-based at the clearing corporation level. Further, if you have generated a CP code, you cannot generate a new one while the old one is still in existence.

The clearing corporation will validate your PAN before issuing a new CP code.

Thank you for your response. Can you also tell me if pledging of equity holdings is allowed for NRIs and to use the funds as collateral against derivatives?
