Merger Update

The rural banking landscape in Bihar has seen consolidation. Uttar Bihar Gramin Bank (UBGB) and Dakshin Bihar Gramin Bank (DBGB) have been merged under the Punjab National Bank sponsor arrangement. After the merger, branches that earlier used UBGB or DBGB IFSCs now operate under the single IFSC code PUNB0MBGB06. Old UBGB and DBGB IFSC codes have been revoked. For any NEFT/RTGS/IMPS transfer to a former UBGB/DBGB branch, use only the new IFSC PUNB0MBGB06.

What is IFSC Code?

IFSC stands for Indian Financial System Code. It is an 11-character alphanumeric code used to route electronic payments to the correct bank and branch. The structure is fixed:

  • First 4 characters: Bank identifier. Example: PUNB = Punjab National Bank.
  • 5th character: Always the digit 0 (reserved for future use).
  • Last 6 characters: Branch identifier. Example: in PUNB0MBGB06 the last six MBGB06 point to the specific branch code.

How to Use IFSC Code

Use the IFSC when you make an electronic transfer. Steps:

  • Log in to your bank’s netbanking, mobile app, or visit a branch.
  • Choose the transfer type: NEFT, RTGS or IMPS.
  • Add a beneficiary by entering beneficiary name, account number and the IFSC code PUNB0MBGB06.
  • Verify the beneficiary details shown by your bank before saving.
  • Initiate the transfer by selecting the saved beneficiary, enter amount and purpose, then authenticate (OTP/password).
  • Check transfer confirmation and keep the reference number for tracking.

Notes:

  • IMPS is instant and available 24×7 for smaller amounts. Use IMPS for immediate credit needs.
  • NEFT is suitable for routine transfers; settlement is continuous in current systems. Your bank will show the processing status.
  • RTGS is meant for large-value transfers and completes faster; banks may have limits or different charges.
  • Always confirm IFSC and account number; a wrong IFSC can delay routing and may require bank intervention to recover funds.

Benefits of Knowing the IFSC

  • Ensures funds reach the exact branch and account—reduces routing errors.
  • Required for all electronic transfers (NEFT, RTGS, IMPS).
  • Helps verify and cross-check beneficiary details before transfer.
  • Makes automated clearing and reconciliation faster for both payer and payee.
  • Useful when setting up salary credits, vendor payments, or receiving inward remittances.

  • Q: What should I do if I enter the wrong IFSC while making a transfer?

    A: If the IFSC still maps to a valid branch, the transfer may go to the wrong branch but can often be recovered by contacting your bank and the receiving bank. If the IFSC is invalid, the payment should fail. Contact your bank immediately with transfer reference, beneficiary details and time of transfer.

    A: IMPS is instant (real-time). NEFT settles quickly under the current round-the-clock system, though banks may show different processing times. RTGS usually processes immediately for large-value transfers. Actual credit time can depend on bank cut-offs, compliance checks, and inter-bank settlement cycles.
