I already have a demat account. Will I have to open a separate demat account for PMS? Why?

Yes, the regulation requires that a separate demat account be opened for Portfolio Management Services (PMS). Portfolio Manager takes Power of Attorney (PoA) on this account so that they can operate account on investor's behalf to settle securities etc. 

Having a separate demat account also allows investors to keep and operate their personal investments separately.
