What is ordinary KYC?
When you open an account with a bank, the KYC (Know Your Customer) done by the bank resides with it. If you wish to open an account with three banks, you need to submit KYC-related documents three times. In case of market-linked products, the Securities and Exchange Board of India has said that a single KYC can be used by others. So, the next intermediary just takes your PAN card and date of birth, and validates those. Your account gets opened immediately.
