What to do with ABG Shipyard shares in the Demat account as the company went insolvent?

You could try converting those shares to physical form and then close the account. Also, you could do an off-market transfer of those shares to your (or your family) other demat accounts and then proceed with closing the account. Also, refer to this thread -

If you’re holding shares in a demat account that you want to close but aren’t able to transfer/sell such securities for any reason, you can still give a closure request to the DP. The DP will then mark the account under the ‘to-be-closed’ status after which no AMC charges will be applied. You will have to move the securities through an off market subsequently/sell them in order to eventually close the account.
