Online money transfer has been a boon to the world of banking, enabling customers to wire money and make payments electronically, often from the comfort of their home. UCO Bank also offers its customers the service of making payments electronically via NEFT (National Electronic Funds Transfer) and RTGS (Real Time Gross Settlement) system. Both these payment systems have been introduced by the RBI and employ a special code known as the IFSC code to function. IFSC codes are issued by the RBI to each bank participating in the NEFT network and helps identify the source bank from the destination bank in the process of a transaction.
An IFSC (Indian Financial System Code) is an 11 character alphanumeric code which is made up of three parts. The first 4 characters denote the name of the bank, the fifth character is always zero, reserved for future use and the last 6 characters represent the specific branch of the bank. For instance the UCO Bank IFSC code for their Davangere branch is UCBA0001043. Looking at the breakup of the same, ‘UCBA’ stands for the name of the bank i.e. UCO Bank, the fifth character is 0, and the last 6 characters of the code ‘001043’ represent the Davangere branch of UCO bank.

Established in 1943, UCO Bank, formerly known as Union Commercial Bank, is one of the leading Government owned financial services company in India. The bank operates via 49 zonal offices located across India, along with two branches located overseas in Hong Kong and Singapore. Serving a diverse customer base, the bank offers financial products and services like corporate banking, consumer banking, investment banking, insurance, private banking, wealth management and mortgage loans, among others.
UCO Bank, which was one of the worst performers in the banking sector due to a large number of non-performing assets (NPAs), is looking forward to turning around its performance and fortunes. Banks Board Bureau Chairman Vinod Rai said recently that UCO bank would receive a boost to continue as a standalone bank instead of merging it with any larger institution.
K. Vijhayan, general secretary, All India UCO Bank Employees’ Association, said the employees were confident of the bank’s success. “We are all working hard to recover dues, mobilise CASA (current account and savings account) deposits, curtail costs and improve customer service,” he said.
In the fiscal year 2015-16, UCO Bank – whose headquarters in Kolkata sports the IFSC code UCBA0000190 – registered a net loss of Rs.2,799 crore.

Owing to continuity in non-performing assets (NPAs), UCO bank posted heavy losses in the last fiscal quarter. In its elaborate plan to turn things around quickly, the management and regulators are working towards recovering dues and mobilise current account and savings account (CASA) deposits. In its path aimed at quick recovery, UCO is strongly considering cutting costs and upping customer service to retain existing customers and add more to the base.
There were also talks of merger which looks like will be abandoned due to protests from the employee unions. This Kolkata based bank recorded a net loss of Rs.2,799 crores in FY 2016. Another contributing factor seems to be emanating from the shrinkage of corpus fund from the scheme where the bank was the only channel for banks to settle trade with Iran. The imbalance in retail-corporate mix of business has also led to losses during the fourth quarter.

FreeCharge and government-owned UCO Bank have become alliance partners in the bid to increase efficiency of e-payments. Some of the additional features introduced through this tie-up will be: cashback offers on recharges and bill payments made through UCO Bank. This alliance is expected to enhance user experience through higher rewards and better accessibility. The recent trend of banks entering a partnership with e-commerce organizations have been attributed to their intention of earning a higher ROI by facilitating more digital cash transactions by their customers. Net Banking and Mobile banking transactions enabled through the process of entering the IFSC code and beneficiary account, etc. for online transactions, have taken a backseat with the availability of platforms like FreeCharge.
