About Bank of India

Bank of India operates a wide network of branches across India, including the National Banking Group North Ii branch in Lucknow. 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, BKID000NB57.

About this branch

The branch is located at NATIONAL BANKING GROUPNORTH 2. It serves the Lucknow 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 BKID000NB57 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 NATIONAL BANKING GROUP NORTH II of Bank of India — its own 11-character IFSC. The code BKID000NB57 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 BKID000NB57 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 BKID000NB57

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 BKID000NB57 across all three.

Comparing NEFT, RTGS and IMPS for transfers to National Banking Group North Ii

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 BKID000NB57:

• 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 NATIONAL BANKING GROUP NORTH II is still linked to IFSC BKID000NB57.

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 BKID000NB57

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 India – NATIONAL BANKING GROUP NORTH II is still mapped to IFSC BKID000NB57. 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 BKID000NB57 and the beneficiary's account number to complete the transfer.
