By mistake I've misplaced my CDS a/c opening letter from my stockbroker. I know it contains my NIC number. It'd be cool if anyone of you can tell me how that number is made with prefixes and suffixes and alterations, if any, to my NIC number. My Stockbroker, by the way is Acuity.

To my Knowledge Basic account number is like this.
1.Brokers Code : FWS ( Acuity Code)
2.NIC Number -
3.VN00

FWS - NIC Number - VN00
This is the basic number which is opened through a NIC. But better rechecked as i might wrong here. cheers
