What is IFSC Code?

The IFSC (Indian Financial System Code) is an 11-character alphanumeric code used to identify bank branches in electronic payment systems. Its structure is fixed:

  • First 4 characters: Bank code (letters). Example: PUNB = Punjab National Bank.
  • 5th character: Reserved and is always ‘0’.
  • Last 6 characters: Branch identifier (letters/numbers). Example: MBGB06 in PUNB0MBGB06.

FAQs

Q: Can I use the old UBGB IFSC for transfers to this branch?
A: No. Old UBGB and DBGB IFSC codes have been revoked after the merger. Use only PUNB0MBGB06 for NEFT, RTGS and IMPS to this branch.

Q: Is IFSC case-sensitive?
A: No. IFSC is not case-sensitive, but enter it exactly without extra spaces or characters. Banks treat uppercase and lowercase the same.

Q: What if I enter a wrong IFSC but the correct account number?
A: Systems validate IFSC and account number together. If the IFSC does not match the account details, the transfer may fail or be returned. Contact your bank immediately with the UTR to resolve any misrouted funds.

Q: How fast are NEFT, RTGS and IMPS transactions?
A: IMPS is instant and available 24×7. NEFT processes in hourly batches (varies by bank), and RTGS is near-instant for high-value transfers during bank hours. Always confirm expected timing with your bank.

Q: How can I verify the IFSC before sending money?
A: Verify IFSC on bank documents such as cheque leaves or passbooks. You can also confirm with the branch phone number (9297954676) or at the bank’s customer service before initiating the transfer.
