No rule disallows any retired person or a person in service trading shares for investment purposes using a Demat account and gain short term or long term capital gains.
Even government encourages the officers in investing in long term mutual funds (ELSS) by allowing tax benefits under 80 C of the income tax act, as well.
For a retired person he is free to engage in even day trading which is treated something equivalent to a business.
