The branch is located at STATION ROAD, NR GOVT.OLD HOSPITAL,KAHALGAON, DIS BHAGALPUR,, BIHAR.

The IFSC BARB0KAHALG is used to identify this branch on the RBI payments network.
Why every Bank of Baroda 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 KAHALGAON, BIHAR of Bank of Baroda — its own 11-character IFSC. The code BARB0KAHALG 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 BARB0KAHALG the same way you would treat your account number — verify it once and save it carefully for future use.
How to transfer money using IFSC BARB0KAHALG
Online transfers in India are powered by three major channels — NEFT, RTGS and IMPS — and each one requires a destination IFSC. Below is a quick guide for using IFSC BARB0KAHALG across all three.
How to use IFSC BARB0KAHALG for an NEFT transfer
NEFT (National Electronic Funds Transfer) is the most widely used method for sending money to Bank of Baroda's KAHALGAON, BIHAR branch. NEFT now settles on a 24x7 basis in half-hourly batches and has no upper limit for retail customers (individual banks may impose their own caps).
- Log in to your internet banking or mobile banking app.
- Choose Add Beneficiary and select NEFT / Other Bank.
- Enter the beneficiary name, account number and the IFSC BARB0KAHALG.
- Confirm the bank name auto-populates as Bank of Baroda and the branch as KAHALGAON, BIHAR.
- Approve the beneficiary using OTP. Once activated, transfer any amount and the credit will reflect in the next NEFT cycle.
RTGS transfers via IFSC BARB0KAHALG
RTGS (Real-Time Gross Settlement) is the fastest high-value transfer mechanism in India. It is meant for transfers of ₹2 lakh and above and settles each transaction individually and instantly. To remit through RTGS to Bank of Baroda – KAHALGAON, BIHAR, ensure your bank's portal accepts IFSC BARB0KAHALG while registering the beneficiary. RTGS is also available 24x7.
IMPS to Bank of Baroda KAHALGAON, BIHAR (IFSC BARB0KAHALG)
IMPS (Immediate Payment Service) offers instant, 24x7 fund transfers up to ₹5 lakh per transaction. Provide the beneficiary's account number along with IFSC BARB0KAHALG in your mobile or internet banking app, and the money is credited to the KAHALGAON, BIHAR branch account within seconds.
Comparing NEFT, RTGS and IMPS for transfers to Kahalgaon, Bihar
The right transfer rail depends on how urgent the payment is, how large it is, and whether the receiving bank participates in the chosen scheme. Every option below works with the IFSC BARB0KAHALG:
- NEFT — best for everyday transfers of any amount; settles in half-hourly batches around the clock.
- RTGS — best for transfers of ₹2 lakh and above; settles each transaction individually in real time.
- IMPS — best when speed matters more than batch scheduling; instant credit up to ₹5 lakh.
- UPI — best for small peer-to-peer payments using a VPA; the underlying account at KAHALGAON, BIHAR is still linked to IFSC BARB0KAHALG.
For salary credits, vendor payouts and refunds, employers and merchants usually default to NEFT because of its zero per-transaction cost for retail customers and its 24x7 availability.
UPI payments and IFSC BARB0KAHALG
UPI (Unified Payments Interface) has become the default way for individuals to send money in India. While most UPI transactions are addressed using a Virtual Payment Address (VPA) like name@bank, the underlying account at Bank of Baroda – KAHALGAON, BIHAR is still mapped to IFSC BARB0KAHALG. When a customer links a savings or current account to a UPI app for the first time, the app silently looks up this IFSC against the account number to verify the account exists. The VPA acts as a friendly alias on top of the same plumbing.
If a UPI transfer to or from this branch fails, the most common reasons are an inactive UPI handle, a daily limit breach or a temporary outage at one of the participating banks — not the IFSC. You can always fall back to NEFT or IMPS using the IFSC BARB0KAHALG and the beneficiary's account number to complete the transfer.
