What documents are required to open an Angel One account?

By PriyaSahu

To open a Demat and trading account with Angel One, you need a few simple documents like PAN card, Aadhaar card, bank details, and your photo and signature. These are basic documents used to verify your identity, address, and financial details. You can submit them online, and the entire process takes only a few minutes. Once approved, your account is activated in 1–2 working days. It’s fast, paperless, and hassle-free for every Indian user.



Which ID Proof is Required?

PAN card is mandatory for opening an Angel One account. It helps verify your identity and is required for stock market transactions. Make sure the PAN card image is clear and the name matches your other documents. Without a valid PAN card, you cannot open a trading or Demat account.



What Address Proof Do You Need?

You can use Aadhaar card, voter ID, passport, or driving license as your address proof. Your name and address should be clearly visible. The most commonly used document is Aadhaar, especially for online verification. You can also upload a utility bill or bank statement if required.



How to Submit Bank Proof?

You need to submit bank details to link your account for fund transfer. You can upload a cancelled cheque, a bank statement, or your passbook with your name, account number, and IFSC code clearly mentioned. It must be a savings account and not older than 3 months for statements.



Is Photo and Signature Required?

Yes, you must upload a passport-size photograph and a scanned image of your signature written on plain white paper. These are needed for completing your eKYC. Make sure both images are clear and properly aligned so they are accepted during the verification process.



Do You Need Income Proof?

If you want to trade in Futures and Options (F&O), you need to submit income proof. This can be your ITR, salary slip, 6-month bank statement, or a net worth certificate from a CA. It shows that you are eligible for trading in derivatives. For regular equity trading, income proof is not required.



What is the IPV Process?

IPV means In-Person Verification. It is the final step of your account opening. You can complete it through a short video verification call on the Angel One app. Just hold your PAN card and say a line shown on the screen. It takes less than 2 minutes to complete.
