About the bank

Canara Bank serves retail and corporate customers with a full range of deposit, lending, payments and digital banking products. Its Thiruppuvanam branch in Thiruppuvanam, Tamil Nadu is part of this network and uses the IFSC code CNRB0016274 for all electronic settlement.

Thiruppuvanam branch overview

Located at NO 1 3 WEST CAR STREET ST MARY S MATRICULATION HSS SIVAGANGA DISTRICT, the Thiruppuvanam branch handles regular banking operations such as account opening, fixed and recurring deposits, locker facilities, loans, and trade finance services where applicable. The IFSC CNRB0016274 is required for all interbank electronic transfers routed through this branch.

Why every Canara Bank 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 THIRUPPUVANAM of Canara Bank — its own 11-character IFSC. The code CNRB0016274 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 CNRB0016274 the same way you would treat your account number — verify it once and save it carefully for future use.

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 CNRB0016274:
