What is IFSC Code?

IFSC stands for Indian Financial System Code. It is an 11-character alphanumeric code used to identify bank branches in electronic payment systems.

  • First 4 characters are the bank identifier. Example: PUNB = Punjab National Bank.
  • 5th character is always 0 (reserved for future use).
  • Last 6 characters identify the specific branch. Example: in PUNB0MBGB06, the last 6 are MBGB06.
