Answer: False

Holding securities in electronic (demat) mode is safe. It removes the risks of physical certificates such as loss, theft, mutilation, forgery, fake certificates and bad delivery. Transfers are by book entry through the Depository Participant, so the electronic mode is in fact less risky.
