Electronic money transfer has made life easier for us in many ways. Not only does it save time but is also one of the most secure modes of money transfer. Central Bank of India offers this facility to its customers by way of NEFT (National Electronic Funds Transfer) and RTGS (Real Time Gross Settlement) services. Both these services have been introduced by RBI, allowing banks to let customers transfer money, not only to other CBI bank accounts but also to accounts held with other banks. NEFT and RTGS services of money transfer make use of a unique code known as the IFSC code. This code is issued by the RBI to all banks which are a part of the NEFT network and helps regulate the process of funds transfer by identifying the source and destination bank for transactions.
The IFSC is an 11 character alphanumeric code which can be broken down into three parts. The first 4 characters represent the name of the bank, the fifth character is always zero and reserved for future use while the last 6 characters are usually numeric, but may also be alphanumeric and denote the branch of the particular bank. For example, the Central Bank of India IFSC code for Udupi branch located in Karkala is ‘CBIN0283152’. Here, the first 4 characters ’CBIN’ represent the name of the bank, the fifth character is zero and the last 6 characters ‘283152’represent the branch which is located in Karkala, Udupi, Karnataka.
