have look at this article in moneylife on how to buy commodities in demat form – http://www.moneylife.in/article/now-you-can-buy-commodities-in-demat-form/13901.html
My personnel opinion is dont deal with commodities unless you have have sufficient expertise in that area. Lot of cheap money from US is chasing these commodities and driving their prices up leading to wild speculation. For example last year silver shot up 76% in just 4 months. i dont see any fundamentals other than speculation behind the sudden spurt.
