About this branch

The branch is located at HOLDING NO 14 15 AND 22A NEW MOUZA DEODHARPUR MOHALLA BAHELIA BIGHA WARD NO 06 PS TIKARI THANA NO 168 IN ANCHAL TIKARI DIST GAYA.

The IFSC UTIB0004104 is used to identify this branch on the RBI payments network.

Why every Axis Bank branch has a unique IFSC

Before electronic settlement systems went live in India, money transfers between banks relied heavily on demand drafts, mail transfers and telegraphic transfers. These older instruments routinely took days to clear and were prone to misrouting because there was no single machine-readable identifier for a branch. The Reserve Bank of India solved this by issuing each participating branch — including TEKARI of Axis Bank — its own 11-character IFSC. The code UTIB0004104 is therefore not just an internal reference; it is the digital postcode that lets the RBI's NEFT, RTGS and IMPS rails route funds straight to the right branch ledger without any human intervention.

Today, almost every salary credit, vendor payment, refund and EMI deduction in the country flows through this network, which is exactly why a correct IFSC matters so much. A wrong character can either bounce the transfer or send it to the wrong branch, and reversing such a credit is a manual, time-consuming process. Treat IFSC UTIB0004104 the same way you would treat your account number — verify it once and save it carefully for future use.

How UPI relates to the IFSC code

UPI lets you pay using a short Virtual Payment Address instead of typing the IFSC every time, but behind the scenes every UPI mandate is mapped to an account number plus an IFSC. For accounts at Axis Bank's TEKARI branch, the IFSC UTIB0004104 is what the National Payments Corporation of India (NPCI) uses to route the credit when you tap Pay on a UPI app.

That is why, even in the UPI era, it is still worth knowing the IFSC of your home branch — for failed UPI mandates, e-mandate set-ups, third-party platform onboarding and salary or refund credits.

MICR & cheque-truncation details

Cheques drawn on the Tekari branch are processed through the Cheque Truncation System (CTS). Each cheque carries a unique 9-digit MICR code that pairs with IFSC UTIB0004104 for clearing. If you receive a cheque from this branch, both codes will be visible on the cheque leaf.

Common mistakes to avoid when using IFSC UTIB0004104

An incorrect IFSC almost always results in a failed transfer or, worse, a credit to the wrong branch. Before you click Confirm on a transfer to Axis Bank – TEKARI, double-check for these issues:

• Confusing 0 with O. The fifth character of every IFSC is the digit 0, not the letter O. Read carefully.
• Spaces or hyphens. Do not put spaces in the IFSC. It is exactly 11 characters: UTIB0004104.
• Wrong branch. A bank can have dozens of branches in the same city. Make sure you are using the IFSC for the actual branch where the beneficiary holds the account, not just any nearby branch.
• Old IFSC after a merger. If two banks have merged, the IFSC may have been reissued. Always verify with a recent passbook or cheque leaf.
• Copy-paste from chat. Auto-correct on phones can silently change letters in IFSC codes. Type carefully or copy from a trusted source like the cheque book.
