IFSC code is a unique eleven-digit number which is a combination of alphabets and numerals. It is used to transfer funds online for NEFT, IMPS and RTGS transactions. Usually, the IFSC code can be found on the cheque-book provided by the bank. It can also be found on the front page of the accountholder\u2019s passbook. The IFSC code of each bank branch is assigned by the Reserve Bank of India. The account holders can easily check the IFSC code of their bank\/branch on the Reserve Bank of India\u2019s website. Internet banking transactions for transferring funds, using NEFT, IMPS and RTGS, can\u2019t be initiated without a valid Indian Financial System Code.<\/p>\n<p>Generally, there isn\u2019t any change or update in the 11-digit IFSC code. Recently, the State Bank of India changed Indian Financial System Code of its branches all over the nation after the merger with five associate banks and 1 other bank.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"blue tabletitle_equl\">The Importance of IFSC code<\/h3>\n<p>The points mentioned below highlight the importance of IFSC code.<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Unique Identification- <\/strong>It helps in identifying a particular bank branch<\/li>\n<li><strong>Elimination Errors<\/strong> It helps to eliminate any discrepancy in the fund transfer process.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Electronic Payments Made Easier- <\/strong>It used in electronic payment tools such as RTGS, IMPS, and NEFT.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h3 class=\"blue tabletitle_equl\">The format for Bank IFSC Code<\/h3>\n<p>The first 4 characters of IFSC code are alphabets which represent the bank. The fifth character is zero (0). Usually, the last 6 characters are numbers but they can be alphabets as well and represent the bank branch.<\/p>\n<table class=\"table table-inverse goldDailyStatus\">\n<tbody>\n<tr class=\"lightblue\">\n<td><strong>A<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><strong>B<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><strong>C<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><strong>D<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><strong>0<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><strong>1<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><strong>2<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><strong>3<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><strong>4<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><strong>5<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><strong>6<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td colspan=\"4\"><strong>Bank Code <\/strong><\/td>\n<td><strong>0<\/strong><\/td>\n<td colspan=\"6\"><strong>Branch Code<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"blue tabletitle_equl\">How does IFSC CODE work?<\/h3>\n<p>Electronic funds transfer in India is facilitated by an alpha-numeric code called the Indian Financial System Code (IFS Code or IFSC). This code exclusively recognizes each bank branch which participates in the two main settlement and payment systems in India, namely, National Electronic Funds Transfer (NEFT) and Real Time Gross Settlement (RTGS).<\/p>\n<p>IFSC code is an eleven-character code that is assigned by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI). The first portion of the code is composed of four letters representing the bank. Next character is zero that is reserved for future use. The last 6 characters are the identification code of the branch.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Let\u2019s take an example:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>IFSC Code of State Bank of India (SBI) starts with letters \u2018SBI\u2019. As there are a lot of banks with several branches, the IFSC code is used to identify the branch involved in the transaction.<\/p>\n<p>IFSC codes are vital while carrying out payment transactions including RTGS, NEFT transfers. Like, for SBI, the IFSC Code will be SBIN0011569 for the branch located in Sector 31, Gurugram.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"blue tabletitle_equl\">Modes of Online Money Transfer Using IFSC Code (Detailed Info About NEFT, RTGS, IMPS)<\/h2>\n<p>There is no denying the fact that almost everyone in our circle is dependent on online payment modes and most certainly, you too are no exception. This online trend is supported by a plethora of options \u2013 thanks to the digitization of monetary transactions.<\/p>\n<p>The convenience of transferring funds online has certainly made our lives much easier. Almost, every other bank provides multiple payment options such as Immediate Payment Service (IMPS), National Electronic Funds Transfer (NEFT), Real Time Gross Settlement (RTGS), etc.<\/p>\n<p>Based on different parameters, such as the speed of transfer, the transaction value, service availability, etc. each of the above-stated payment transfer methods will offer a diverse range of features and flexibility. Although these payment methods have their own set of benefits, yet they come with their varied flexibility and convenience for the customers.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"blue tabletitle_equl\"><strong>How can IFSC code help you Transfer your Money Through NEFT?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>National Electronic Fund Transfer (NEFT) is one of the most widespread online methods of transferring funds from one bank to another. NEFT is based on a deferred arrangement which actually means that the money is transferred in different sets (batches).<\/p>\n<p>Currently, there are 12 payment settlements sets arranged between the time slab of 8 am and 7 pm for weekdays (Monday to Friday) and six payment settlements between 8 am and 1 pm for Saturdays.<\/p>\n<p>Although there isn\u2019t any cap on the amount that one can transfer through NEFT, however, a few banks have put a limit. For instance, SBI (State Bank of India) has put a cap of Rs 10 lakhs for NEFT transfer amount under their retail banking option.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Step-by-step procedure to transfer money via NEFT:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>To start with, your bank branch should be NEFT-enabled. You can visit RBI\u2019s (Reserve Bank of India) website to check and confirm so.<\/li>\n<li>Complete the registration process for your net banking account by creating a username and password. However, your mobile number should be registered with your bank to complete the net banking registration.<\/li>\n<li>Afterward, you need to add the beneficiary to your account to whom you want to transfer the money. To do this, you will need the beneficiary\u2019s name, her\/his bank account number and the IFSC (Indian Financial System Code) of her\/his bank branch. IFSC can be either found on the bank statement or on the cheque leaf.<\/li>\n<li>Once you have successfully added the beneficiary, there might be a waiting time (assigned by the bank) before you can transfer funds to the added beneficiary. Again, for instance, SBI has a waiting time of 4 hours.<\/li>\n<li>Once logged into your net banking account, go to the option of \u2018Transfer Funds\u2019, select the name of the particular beneficiary you want to transfer funds to and complete the transfer with the help of an OTP (One Time Password) sent to your registered mobile number.<\/li>\n<li>The amount will be transferred to the beneficiary as per the next settlement\u2019s schedule.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>The NEFT costs between Rs 2.50 to Rs 25 (+ service tax), depending on the amount transferred to the beneficiary.<\/p>\n<p>There are also certain limitations of NEFT transactions like you cannot transfer funds at any time you feel doing so. This service is available only on working days and within the working hours of your bank. You won\u2019t be able to avail this service on weekends and bank holidays.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"blue tabletitle_equl\">The RTGS Option (Real Time Gross Settlement)<\/h2>\n<ol>\n<li>RTGS transfer is basically meant for high-value funds transactions. The minimum amount that can be transferred through RTGS is Rs 2 lakhs. There isn\u2019t any cap on maximum transfer. As this transfer takes place on a real-time basis, the individual to whom the amount is being transferred to will receive the amount in approximately 30 minutes.<\/li>\n<li>The RTGS service works from 9 am to 4:30 pm on weekdays and 9 am to 2 pm on Saturdays.<\/li>\n<li>The procedure to use RTGS service is same as NEFT. You simply need to make sure that your, as well as the beneficiary\u2019s, bank accounts are RTGS-enabled and you have the IFSC code of his\/her bank branch.<\/li>\n<li>RTGS is a bit costlier than NEFT, wherein a transfer of Rs 2- Rs 5 lakhs may cost you a fee of Rs 30, whereas the transactions above Rs 5 lakhs may cost you Rs 55.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2 class=\"blue tabletitle_equl\"><strong>The Immediate Payment Service (IMPS)<\/strong><\/h2>\n<ol>\n<li>IMPS is an instant fund service and works 24*7. It can be used 365 days a year to transfer funds to any other bank account. This service was introduced in 2010 by National Payments Corporation of India.<\/li>\n<li>You don\u2019t have to register separately for IMPS service \u2013 once you are logged into your net banking account, you will get the option of transferring your funds either by NEFT, RTGS or IMPS. You can choose the IMPS option to carry out the transfer.<\/li>\n<li>Once again, you will need the beneficiary\u2019s full name, her\/his bank account number and IFSC code to complete the transfer. In case you transferring funds through the mobile app of your bank, you would also need MMID (Mobile Money Identifier) code for IMPS.<\/li>\n<li>MMID is a 7-digit number issued by the bank for IMPS service if the individual is using mobile banking as a beneficiary. Also, while conducting IMPS through mobile, there isn\u2019t any need of the beneficiary to get registered.<\/li>\n<li>The charges for using IMPS is decided by the banks. However, usually the charge for fund transfer up to Rs 1 lakh is Rs 5 and for a transfer between Rs 1-2 lakhs is up to Rs 15.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2 class=\"blue tabletitle_equl\"><strong>What is the use of IFSC?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>An IFSC code is used by the Indian financial system to facilitate an online and electronic transfer of money. It is the IFSC code of a bank which enables it to help people with NEFT and RTGs.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"blue tabletitle_equl\"><strong>IFSC Code Pattern<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>In an IFSC code, the first four characters are alphabets which denote the bank name. Hence, the IFSC code of each branch of the same bank will begin with the same four letters. The fifth character is zero.<\/p>\n<p>The remaining six characters are digits or numbers which denote the branch code. This is the part which makes an IFSC code unique.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"blue tabletitle_equl\"><strong>How to know the IFSC Code?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>It is simple. If you have an account with any branch of any bank, you will automatically get to know its IFSC code as it is printed on the passbook.<\/p>\n<p>However, if you want to know the code without creating an account, you can do so via the internet. There is an official website of IFSC code where you can know all about this code.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"blue tabletitle_equl\"><strong>What Is a MICR Code? <\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>MICR is an acronym for Magnetic Ink Character Recognition. Primarily, this innovative technology authenticates the legality and credibility of paper-based document(s) in the banking database. It can be found on cheques. MICR is at par with IFSC as far as the security of a fund transfer is concerned.<\/p>\n<p>MICR code is a product of highly advanced Character Recognition Technology (CRT) used by banks to verify cheques for clearance. MICR technology is used for other bank documents as well. A <a href=\"https:\/\/www.antworksmoney.com\/blog\/ifsc-code-micr-code-sbi-chirala-andhra-pradesh\/\">MICR code<\/a> is placed at the bottom of a cheque. It includes details such as the bank code, account details, amount, and cheque number, alongside a control indicator. The biggest advantage of MICR technology is that it stands out among similar concepts, such as barcodes, as MICR can be read and distinguished by humans very easily.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"blue tabletitle_equl\"><strong>Difference between IFSC\u00a0Code &amp; MICR Code<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>As monetary transactions are not limited to financial institutions like banks, thorough verification is necessary before processing a transaction. To make the process faster, simpler and automatic, banks and other financial institutions rely on certain codes. These codes, namely, MICR Code and IFSC Code, play a significant role in verifying the authenticity of a transaction. However, there is a difference between the usage of both these codes.<\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s gather a clear understanding of both and learn how they differ from each other-<\/p>\n<table class=\"table table-inverse goldDailyStatus\">\n<tbody>\n<tr class=\"lightblue\">\n<td width=\"308\"><strong>IFSC Code<\/strong><\/td>\n<td width=\"308\"><strong>MICR Code<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"308\">It is used to facilitate electronic money transfer between the banks in India.<\/td>\n<td width=\"308\">MICR code is initiated to make cheque processing simpler and faster.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"308\">IFSC Code is an 11-digit alpha-numeric code<\/td>\n<td width=\"308\">MICR is a 9-digit code<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"308\">The first four characters indicate the name of the bank.<\/td>\n<td width=\"308\">The first three digits represent the city code where the bank branch is located.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"308\">Last 6 digits represent the bank location<\/td>\n<td width=\"308\">Last three digits indicate the bank branch code.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"blue tabletitle_equl\"><strong>How to search for the IFSC Code of a particular Bank&#8217;s Branch<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Abbreviated as Indian Financial System Code, IFSC is an 11-digit alphanumeric code that is used to identify the bank branches that participate in various electronic monetary transactions like NEFT or RTGS. One can find the IFSC code either in his\/her bank passbook or on the chequebook. The image below can help you understand better.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.policybazaar.com\/images\/ifsc-code-india.jpg\" alt=\"IFSC Code\" \/><\/p>\n<p>One can search for the IFSC Code of any bank branch by visiting the official website of a particular bank or by calling on their helpline number. For instance, if you want to know HDFC bank South Delhi branch code:<\/p>\n<ol class=\"data_ol\">\n<li>You can call the branch over the phone and ask the IFSC Code<\/li>\n<li>As said before, you can find it on the chequebook or passbook given by the bank<\/li>\n<li>You can find IFSC codes on RBI\u2019s official website as well. It is mentioned with the list of banks participating in the RTGS\/NEFT network<\/li>\n<li>Apart from the above, third-party websites like PolicyBazaar.com also helps you find the required information. To get the IFSC code of HDFC Bank, visit HDFC bank IFSC code page of PolicyBazaar.com. Click on the tab \u2018Search HDFC Bank code by Branch\u2019. Make the relevant selection by clicking on the drop-down menu and enter the required details like state, district, branch. Once you submit this information, the entire details of that particular bank branch will appear in front of you.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2 class=\"blue tabletitle_equl\"><strong>How can one Transfer Money with IFSC Code of the Bank?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>With IFSC Code, online money transfer has become easier and hassle-free. RBI has assigned these codes to the bank branches to perform NEFT, RTGS and IMPS fund transfer in a smooth way. To know how IFSC Code works while transferring money, let\u2019s take an example here. The IFSC code of HDFC Saket, New Delhi branch is HDFC0000043.<\/p>\n<ol class=\"data_ol\">\n<li>Here, the first four digits identify the bank, which is HDFC Bank.<\/li>\n<li>The 5<sup>th<\/sup> digit is always \u2018Zero\u2019.<\/li>\n<li>The remaining 6 characters 000043, helps Reserve Banks of India (RBI) identify the branch of the bank<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Let\u2019s know how IFSC Code works during a transaction. When a fund transfer is initiated, one has to provide the bank account number and the IFSC code of the payee. Once the remitter provides all the necessary information, the fund is transferred to the account of the beneficiary with the help of IFSC Code in a smooth way. Fund transfer with IFSC code takes only a few minutes from the time of initiation.<\/p>\n<p>IFSC Code also can be used at the time of purchasing mutual funds or insurance through NetBanking. As the National Clearing Cell of Reserve Bank of India monitors all transactions, IFSC Code helps RBI to keep a track of various transactions and execute fund transfer without any hassle.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"blue tabletitle_equl\"><strong>How to e-transfer Fund?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Nowadays, most of the people opt for some or the other online process to transfer fund from one account to another. The process of e-transfer of funds is not only simple but it is also hassle-free. Moreover, it saves you from the trouble of going to the bank and standing in a queue to transfer funds. You just need to follow a few simple steps to successfully transfer your money from one account to another. Let\u2019s take a look at these step.<\/p>\n<ol class=\"data_ol\">\n<li>First and foremost, in order to avail the online services offered by your bank, it is important that you get yourself registered for the bank\u2019s net banking services.<\/li>\n<li>You will need to register the recipient account as a beneficiary for third-party transactions. (Note that, beneficiary refers to the third party from a different bank than yours)<\/li>\n<li>You will be required to add the beneficiary account and the recipient bank branch\u2019s IFSC code.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2 class=\"blue tabletitle_equl\"><strong>Process of Registering a Third Party Beneficiary:<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Majorly, every bank in India has its own policy regarding a third-party fund transfer. However, the method of third-party fund transfer remains more or less the same for every bank, except they are presented a bit differently.<\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s take a look at the process to register a third party beneficiary.<\/p>\n<ol class=\"data_ol\">\n<li>Enter your customer ID and PIN and log-in to the online banking service of the bank.<\/li>\n<li>Click on \u2018fund transfer\u2019 option. You will be directed to a new page.<\/li>\n<li>Go to request tab, you will see an option to add a beneficiary.

Once done, you can then transfer funds.<\/li>\n<li>After the beneficiary is added to your account, you will have to enter the description and amount that you want to transfer to the beneficiary\u2019s account.<\/li>\n<li>Once you are done with that, select the option of communication detail i.e. either mobile or email.<\/li>\n<li>Based on whatever option you choose, you will receive an OTP either on your registered mobile number or on the email ID.<\/li>\n<li>After the verification of OTP is completed, your fund will be transferred to the beneficiary account.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2 class=\"blue tabletitle_equl\"><strong>Different Methods of Fund Transfer with the Help of IFSC Code<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>The online process of fund transfer with the help of IFSC code is not that difficult as it seems. To the contrary, it is simpler and hassle-free. While processing fund transfer from one account to another, IFSC code is key information that facilitates the transfer. However, there are different methods of transferring funds with the help of IFSC code. Let\u2019s take a look at these methods.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"blue tabletitle_equl\"><strong> Through App:<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Almost every smartphone has apps these days. You can make the most of your bank\u2019s apps available in google play\/app store. Moreover, you can also initiate fund transfer through an app. Here are few basic steps that you need to follow in order to transfer fund through a particular bank app.<\/p>\n<ol class=\"data_ol\">\n<li>First and foremost, you need to have an activated net banking system for your account.<\/li>\n<li>Download the net banking app of your bank.<\/li>\n<li>Open the app; enter the login PIN or credentials, like the customer ID and password to open your account.<\/li>\n<li>Choose the option of fund transfer; you will see various options of third-party fund transfer like:\n<ul class=\"data_ul\">\n<li>Between My Accounts<\/li>\n<li>Within Bank<\/li>\n<li>Instant Transfer to Other Bank-IMPS<\/li>\n<li>To Other Bank- NEFT<\/li>\n<li>Via Visa Card<\/li>\n<li>Via Special Payment<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li>Choose the NEFT option of fund transfer.<\/li>\n<li>In case, you have not added the beneficiary, then first them by entering the name of the beneficiary, bank account number, and the IFSC code of the respective bank branch.<\/li>\n<li>Once you completed the process of registration, it will take around 5 mins- 12hrs to activate the beneficiary account for money transfer. This time period to link the accounts generally depends upon the bank policy.<\/li>\n<li>Once the beneficiary account is linked to your account, you can easily initiate an instant money transfer to the beneficiary\u2019s account.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h3 class=\"blue tabletitle_equl\"><strong>Through SMS:<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>You can also transfer money through the SMS process with the help of an IFSC code.
