The role of IFSC in India's payments network

India's electronic payment infrastructure — NEFT, RTGS, IMPS, UPI and the National Automated Clearing House (NACH) — is built on a single principle: every participating bank branch must be uniquely identifiable by an alphanumeric code. The Reserve Bank of India introduced the IFSC system to fulfil this requirement, and that is how Bank of India's CUTTACK branch came to be assigned the code BKID0005100.

Whether you are receiving a salary on the first of the month, paying a vendor invoice, settling an EMI, or accepting a refund from an e-commerce platform, the IFSC is the silent piece of metadata that tells the network where your account lives. Without IFSC BKID0005100, money simply cannot be routed to the CUTTACK branch electronically.

MICR code & cheque clearing

Apart from IFSC, every cheque book issued by Bank of India carries a 9-digit MICR (Magnetic Ink Character Recognition) code that is read by cheque-sorting machines. The MICR code, the IFSC BKID0005100 and the account number together uniquely identify the Cuttack branch and your account. The MICR for this branch is printed at the bottom of your cheque leaves.

How to transfer money using IFSC BKID0005100

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 BKID0005100 across all three.

How to use IFSC BKID0005100 for an NEFT transfer

NEFT (National Electronic Funds Transfer) is the most widely used method for sending money to Bank of India's CUTTACK 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).

3. Enter the beneficiary name, account number and the IFSC BKID0005100.

5. Approve the beneficiary using OTP. Once activated, transfer any amount and the credit will reflect in the next NEFT cycle.

RTGS transfers via IFSC BKID0005100

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 India – CUTTACK, ensure your bank's portal accepts IFSC BKID0005100 while registering the beneficiary. RTGS is also available 24x7.

Comparing NEFT, RTGS and IMPS for transfers to Cuttack

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 BKID0005100:

• 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 CUTTACK is still linked to IFSC BKID0005100.

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.

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.
