Merger Update

This branch now uses the single IFSC PUNB0MBGB06 under Punjab National Bank (PNB). The two regional rural banks — Uttar Bihar Gramin Bank (UBGB) and Dakshin Bihar Gramin Bank (DBGB) — were merged into a single entity and consolidated under PNB’s sponsorship. As a result, old UBGB/DBGB IFSC codes have been revoked. Only the new IFSC PUNB0MBGB06 is valid for NEFT, RTGS and IMPS transactions for this branch. Do not use the old UBGB or DBGB IFSC codes; they will cause transaction failure or reversal.

What is IFSC Code?

The IFSC (Indian Financial System Code) is an 11-character alphanumeric code used to uniquely identify bank branches in India for electronic payments.

  • First 4 characters = Bank identifier (example: PUNB = Punjab National Bank).
  • 5th character = Reserved and is 0 (zero) in the current format.
  • Last 6 characters = Branch identifier (example: MBGB06 in PUNB0MBGB06 identifies the specific branch under the sponsor bank).

So, for PUNB0MBGB06 the breakdown is: PUNB | 0 | MBGB06. The IFSC tells payment systems which bank and which branch should receive the funds.

How to Use IFSC Code for NEFT, RTGS and IMPS

  • Step 1 — Collect beneficiary details: beneficiary name, account number, branch IFSC (PUNB0MBGB06), branch name and purpose if required.
  • Step 2 — Add beneficiary in your bank app or netbanking: go to ‘Add Beneficiary’ or ‘Manage Payees’, enter the account number and IFSC exactly as given, then submit.
  • Step 3 — Verification: most banks send an OTP to confirm addition. Wait for confirmation before transferring funds.
  • Step 4 — Choose payment mode: NEFT (suitable for most transfers, now available round-the-clock), RTGS (for high-value transfers — typically ₹2 lakh and above — immediate real-time settlement), or IMPS (instant, 24×7 for smaller amounts).
  • Step 5 — Initiate transfer: select beneficiary, enter amount, remarks and authenticate with OTP/transaction password. Confirm the details before final submission.
  • Offline option: fill the bank transfer form at the branch with the beneficiary account number, IFSC PUNB0MBGB06, MICR 800811002 if requested, and sign the form.

Benefits of Knowing the IFSC

  • Ensures funds are routed directly to the correct branch and account.
  • Prevents delays, reversals and additional verification steps from the bank.
  • Required for online payment setup — you cannot add a beneficiary without it in most systems.
  • Keeps high-value transfers (RTGS) and instant transfers (IMPS) accurate and secure.
  • Helps customer service and reconciliation — giving the IFSC + branch code (7459) speeds troubleshooting.

  • Q: What is the difference between IFSC and MICR?
