Merger Update

If this branch was earlier associated with Uttar Bihar Gramin Bank (UBGB) or Dakshin Bihar Gramin Bank (DBGB), note that both regional banks have been merged into a single structure under the sponsor bank. All branches now operate with the IFSC PUNB0MBGB06 under Punjab National Bank. Old UBGB and DBGB IFSC codes have been revoked. For electronic transfers, only the new IFSC code PUNB0MBGB06 is valid. Using an old IFSC will cause the transaction to fail or be returned.

What is an IFSC Code?

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

  • First 4 characters: Bank identifier (for example, “PUNB” for Punjab National Bank).
  • Fifth character: Always “0” (reserved for future use).
  • Last 6 characters: Branch identifier (unique to each branch). For RAWAL BIGHA the branch component is “MBGB06” making the full IFSC PUNB0MBGB06.

How to Use IFSC Code for NEFT, RTGS and IMPS

Follow these steps when you want to transfer money:

  • Open your bank’s netbanking or mobile banking app, or visit the branch.
  • Choose the transfer method: NEFT, RTGS or IMPS. (IMPS is instant and always available; NEFT and RTGS are now also available 24×7.)
  • Add a beneficiary by entering: beneficiary name, account number, and IFSC PUNB0MBGB06. Verify the MICR 800811002 if needed for cheque clearing queries.
  • Confirm the account details shown by your bank after you add the beneficiary. Small spelling or digit errors can send funds to the wrong account.
  • Enter the amount and select transfer. For RTGS, confirm the high-value transfer details (RTGS is used for large-value transfers; banks often set a minimum around Rs. 2,00,000 though check with your bank for its current rules).
  • Authenticate the transaction with OTP or transaction password as required. Save the UTR or transaction reference for records.

Benefits of Knowing the IFSC

  • Accurate routing: Ensures funds land in the exact branch and account.
  • Saves time: Prevents failed transfers and the subsequent follow-up.
  • Required for online transfers: Most banks require IFSC to add beneficiaries for NEFT/RTGS/IMPS.
  • Useful for documentation: IFSC appears on bank forms and receipts and helps reconcile transactions.
  • Fraud avoidance: Verifying IFSC with phone or branch details reduces mistakes and spoofing risks.
