IFSC structure
IFSC is 11 characters: 4 letters for the bank (SBIN = State Bank of India, HDFC = HDFC Bank, ICIC = ICICI Bank, UTIB = Axis Bank, PUNB = Punjab National Bank, BARB = Bank of Baroda), then a zero (reserved for future use), then 6 letters or digits identifying the branch. Example SBIN0001234: bank SBIN, branch 001234. Transfers via NEFT, RTGS and IMPS use the IFSC to route funds.
