About Bank of India
Bank of India operates a wide network of branches across India, including the Chandaur branch in Chandaur Dist Saharsa. Each branch is enabled for NEFT, RTGS, IMPS and core banking, allowing customers to send and receive money anywhere in the country using a unique IFSC – in this case, BKID0004585.
About this branch
The branch is located at BLOCK CAMPUS SAUR BAZARPO SAUR BAZAR DIST SAHARSA. It serves the Chandaur Dist Saharsa region and is connected to the bank's core banking platform, which means transactions initiated here are instantly visible across all other branches of Bank of India. The IFSC BKID0004585 is used to identify this branch on the RBI payments network.
Why every Bank of India 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 CHANDAUR of Bank of India — its own 11-character IFSC. The code BKID0004585 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 BKID0004585 the same way you would treat your account number — verify it once and save it carefully for future use.
