Solution

  1. No, Mr. Satish cannot deposit his shares in a Savings Bank Account for dematerialization. Savings accounts are meant for cash deposits and do not hold shares or securities.
  2. Mr. Satish needs a Dematerialized (Demat) account to convert his physical shares into electronic mode. A Demat account is specifically designed to hold shares and securities electronically.
  3. No, the RBI (Reserve Bank of India) will not be the custodian of Mr. Satish's shares after dematerialization. Depositories like NSDL (National Securities Depository Limited) or CDSL (Central Depository Services Limited) manage electronic securities custody in India.
