What is an IFSC Code?

IFSC (Indian Financial System Code) is an 11-character alphanumeric code that uniquely identifies a bank branch participating in the NEFT, RTGS, and IMPS electronic funds transfer systems in India.

How do I find my bank's IFSC code?

You can find your bank's IFSC code printed on your cheque leaf or passbook. Alternatively, search on Bankonic by selecting your bank, state, and branch.

Can I apply for a personal loan using my IFSC code?

Yes! Banks use your IFSC code to verify your existing bank account during loan applications. Having an active account with verified IFSC speeds up loan processing.

Is my money safe during online transfers using IFSC?

Yes, NEFT/RTGS/IMPS transfers using IFSC codes are highly secure. All transactions are encrypted and monitored by RBI.
