Empowering DPs For Maintaining DIS In a Tamper-Proof Storage Facility
SEBI vide its circular no. CIR/MRD/01/2014 dated January 7, 2014 has issued guidelines regarding standardisation, monitoring and scanning of Delivery Instruction Slip (DIS). These guidelines advised Participants to put in place appropriate systems, procedures, and mechanisms to discharge these obligations.
In terms of the aforesaid guidelines, Participants are required to scan the DIS, sign the DIS images and store them in a tamper-proof manner. To facilitate the same, NSDL provides a tamper-proof storage facility viz., DIS Maintenance System (DMS) to its participants to comply with the aforesaid guidelines.
DMS is designed to meet minimum specifications and offers efficient detection capabilities for unauthorized modification.
Advantages of DMS To NSDL Participants
- Designed in line with SEBI circular on standardisation, monitoring and scanning of DIS.
- Offers efficient detection capabilities for unauthorised modification.
- Ensures maximum security i.e., encryption key used for encryption is stored in a secured manner, so that it is not accessible to any unauthorized person.
- Participants need not purchase separate hardware for hosting DMS. Thus, saving of computing resources.
The DIS Maintenance System (DMS) will be hosted on the Local DPM server or any other computer machine available with Participants including back-office system of the Participant. Hence, Participants are not required to procure separate hardware for hosting DMS. To use this facility, Participants will have to access DMS (http://dismaintenance.nsdl.co.in) with Log-in ID and password.
DMS will ensure that the users of the Participants can upload the details of DIS safely. DMS subscriber will have to obtain a digital signature certificate from a licensed CA viz., e-Mudhra Consumer Services Limited (e-Mudhra). NSDL has made arrangements with e-Mudhra for issuance of DSC alogwith e-token to the Participants of NSDL at free of cost (subject to maximum five DSCs), to be used by Participants for signing the DIS in DMS. For this purpose, Participants will be required to submit the application form alongwith the requisite documents (as mentioned in the form) to e-Mudhra for issuance of DSC. Further, for procurement of additional DSCs, Participants are requested to refer to NSDL Circular No.: NSDL/POLICY/2014/0082 dated July 14, 2014.
Activities in DMS : The following Activities Can Be Performed By The DMS :
- DIS Master Upload.
- Online Scanning of DIS.
- Upload of DIS Scanned Images into DMS.
- Download of DIS Scanned Images with digital signature of NSDL.
- Tamper Proof Storage
- Enhanced search facility with additional fields “NSDL Batch Number” and “DP Batch Number” under Online Scan DIS.
- Facility of bulk verification of DIS Image under Online scan DIS.
- Enhanced search facility with additional field “NSDL Batch Number” under Download of DIS scan images with DP signature.
- Facility of online downloading of files after successful export under Download of DIS scan images with DP signature.
- Facility to view the successfully exported batch of DIS Scan Images under the search screen of Download of DIS scan images with DP signature.
- Enhanced search facility with additional field “Pending for Tamper Proof” under Upload Scanned DIS to Tamper Proof Storage.
- Facility of on-screen browsing of files to import the same for tamper proof.
NSDL Depository System comprises e-DPM System and Local DPM System. Both e-DPM system and Local DPM System will have a browser based interface.
