About Bank of India
Bank of India operates a wide network of branches across India, including the Tivim branch in Tivim. 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, BKID0001055.
About this branch
The branch is located at SUMITRALAY BUILDING GROUND FLOOR HOUSE NO 1273 8 AUCHIT WADA TIVIM BARDEZ GOA 403502. It serves the Tivim 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 BKID0001055 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 TIVIM of Bank of India — its own 11-character IFSC. The code BKID0001055 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 BKID0001055 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 BKID0001055
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 BKID0001055 across all three.
NEFT to Bank of India, TIVIM using IFSC BKID0001055
National Electronic Funds Transfer is the simplest way to move money into an account at this branch. NEFT works around the clock, including Sundays and public holidays, and settles in half-hourly batches.
To send funds, add the recipient as a beneficiary in your bank's online portal, key in the account number, paste the IFSC BKID0001055, and confirm that the system picks up Bank of India – TIVIM. Submit the transfer request, authenticate with OTP, and the amount will reach the beneficiary in the next clearing cycle.
RTGS transfers via IFSC BKID0001055
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 – TIVIM, ensure your bank's portal accepts IFSC BKID0001055 while registering the beneficiary. RTGS is also available 24x7.
IMPS to Bank of India TIVIM (IFSC BKID0001055)
IMPS (Immediate Payment Service) offers instant, 24x7 fund transfers up to ₹5 lakh per transaction. Provide the beneficiary's account number along with IFSC BKID0001055 in your mobile or internet banking app, and the money is credited to the TIVIM branch account within seconds.
Comparing NEFT, RTGS and IMPS for transfers to Tivim
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 BKID0001055:
- 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 TIVIM is still linked to IFSC BKID0001055.
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. For accounts at Bank of India's TIVIM branch, the IFSC BKID0001055 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.
