Conclusions
From the survey conducted it is observed that depository provides various benefit to both investors and companies. From the study conducted the following conclusions can be drawn. Indian stock markets are growing and are showing new path ways to trade in various financial instruments. Investors are using all services that provided by Stock exchange and Depository. It shows that lack of knowledge and awareness regarding Stoke exchange and Depository it reason that more investors are away from stoke market.

Suggestions
We have made a survey regarding the customer awareness regarding the depository. In our survey we had confronted with different difficulties, which are faced by investors, and in this regard our suggestions are: The DP's should provide the facility to check the accounts on Internet, The DP's should send the statement of holdings to their clients in time,DP's should create more awareness among the investors through advertising campanies,DP's should try to open their branches in every city so that volumes should increase, The DP's are lacking in management area so effective management in overall depository section can help the DP's in improving their quality of service. The overall trend says that all are having problem with the high charge structure of the DP's and that should be reduced so that small investors could not find any hesitation in opening an account with the DP's.
