An Indian Financial System Code (IFSC) is a unique 11-character alphanumeric code assigned by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) to identify every bank branch participating in national electronic payment systems including NEFT (National Electronic Funds Transfer), RTGS (Real-Time Gross Settlement), and IMPS (Immediate Payment Service).
The 11-digit IFSC code follows a strict RBI-mandated structural format across all public, private, rural, and cooperative banks in India:
1. Select Bank Name: Choose your bank from the alphabetical dropdown (e.g. SBI, HDFC, ICICI, PNB, Bank of Baroda).
2. Choose State & City: Select the state and district where the branch is located.
3. Pick Branch Name: Select your locality or branch name to view the exact IFSC code, MICR code, and branch address.
