Power of attorney use case

How do you check whether your account is POA or non POA account?

If POA is submitted to zerodha broker should i still enter tpin and otp

From my experience, one way to identify if the account is a non-POA account is if the Authorisation link is present on the Holdings page -

POA accounts don’t have the Authorisation link on the Holdings page -


CDSL TPIN & OTP is only required for non-POA accounts as mentioned in this support page -

The POA is to allow your broker to debit shares from your demat account when you sell them on the exchange. If you have not submitted the POA, you will be able to place delivery sell instructions by using the CDSL TPIN provided you are holding an individual, joint, NRI, or a minor demat account.
