Merger Update

Important: Uttar Bihar Gramin Bank (UBGB) and Dakshin Bihar Gramin Bank (DBGB) have been merged into Punjab National Bank (PNB) for banking operations in this region. As part of that process, affected gramin bank branches now operate under a PNB IFSC. The Mirpur branch uses the IFSC PUNB0MBGB06. Old UBGB or DBGB IFSC codes have been revoked and are no longer valid for NEFT/RTGS/IMPS transactions. Only the new PNB IFSC should be used to avoid failed transfers or delays.

What is IFSC Code?

IFSC stands for Indian Financial System Code. It is an 11-character alphanumeric code that uniquely identifies a bank branch in electronic payment systems.

  • First 4 characters: bank code. Example: PUNB = Punjab National Bank.
  • 5th character: reserved and is always 0 (zero).
  • Last 6 characters: branch identifier. Example: MBGB06 identifies the Mirpur branch under the merged structure.

So, for PUNB0MBGB06: PUNB = bank, 0 = reserved, MBGB06 = branch code.

How to Use IFSC Code

Use the IFSC during any electronic fund transfer. Steps vary slightly by channel:

  • NEFT (National Electronic Funds Transfer)
    • Open your bank’s netbanking or mobile app.
    • Select fund transfer → add beneficiary.
    • Enter beneficiary name, account number and IFSC = PUNB0MBGB06.
    • Authorize and initiate transfer. NEFT settles in half-hourly batches (timings depend on the bank).
  • RTGS (Real Time Gross Settlement)
    • Used for high-value transfers (bank minimums apply; typically above ₹2 lakh, but confirm with your bank).
    • Add beneficiary with IFSC PUNB0MBGB06 and enter amount. RTGS transfers are processed in real time during RTGS hours.
  • IMPS (Immediate Payment Service)
    • Available 24×7 for small and medium payments.
    • Add beneficiary using the IFSC PUNB0MBGB06 or use mobile number/VPA if registered.
    • Confirm and complete; credit is immediate in most cases.

Practical tips:

  • Copy-paste the IFSC when possible. Manual typing increases error risk.
  • If the receiving bank asks for a branch code separately, provide 100236 (Branch Code) or last 6 of IFSC MBGB06.
  • Verify beneficiary details after adding. A wrong IFSC can route funds to a different branch or cause rejection.

Benefits of Knowing the IFSC

  • Accurate routing: Ensures funds reach the exact branch and account.
  • Faster processing: Correct IFSC reduces manual checks and delays.
  • Works across channels: Required for NEFT, RTGS and IMPS.
  • Helps with account verification: Banks use IFSC to confirm branch details during add-beneficiary steps.
  • Essential after mergers: New IFSC reflects updated bank structure and avoids transaction failures.
