Merger Update

This branch now uses the single IFSC code PUNB0MBGB06 under Punjab National Bank. The regional rural banks in Bihar (previously known as Uttar Bihar Gramin Bank and Dakshin Bihar Gramin Bank) have been consolidated. As a result, any old UBGB IFSC codes have been revoked. Only the new IFSC PUNB0MBGB06 is valid for electronic transactions to this branch. Do not use old UBGB/DBGB IFSCs — they will fail or require manual correction.

What is IFSC Code?

The IFSC (Indian Financial System Code) is an 11-character alphanumeric code used to route electronic payments to specific bank branches in India. The structure is:

  • First 4 characters: Bank identifier (example: PUNB = Punjab National Bank).
  • 5th character: Always 0 (reserved for future use).
  • Last 6 characters: Branch identifier (example: MBGB06 for Motipur branch).

Example: PUNB0MBGB06 breaks down as PUNB | 0 | MBGB06.

How to Use IFSC Code (NEFT, RTGS, IMPS)

  1. Open your bank’s online banking or mobile app, or visit the branch for offline transfer.
  2. Choose the transfer type: NEFT, RTGS or IMPS. (IMPS is instant and available 24×7; NEFT and RTGS functionality is also available round the clock in most banks.)
  3. Add a new beneficiary. Enter the beneficiary name exactly as per bank records and the beneficiary account number.
  4. Enter the IFSC code PUNB0MBGB06 for the Bihar Gramin Bank, Motipur branch. Do not add spaces or change case; enter it exactly.
  5. Confirm the bank and branch name shown by the system. If it does not match, double-check the IFSC and account number before proceeding.
  6. Enter the amount and any required remarks. Authenticate the transaction using OTP, UPI PIN, or netbanking credentials.
  7. Save the beneficiary if you will transfer to this account again. First-time additions often require a cooling period before transfer (bank-specific).
