About this branch

The branch is located at SATRIRAJU COMPLEX, VENKATRAMA POWER PRESS, POWER PET, ELURU ANDHRAPRADESH 534002. It serves the Eluru region and is connected to the bank's core banking platform, which means transactions initiated here are instantly visible across all other branches of Central Bank of India.

Why every Central 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 BRANCH of Central Bank of India — its own 11-character IFSC. The code CBIN0280825 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 CBIN0280825 the same way you would treat your account number — verify it once and save it carefully for future use.

UPI payments and IFSC CBIN0280825

UPI (Unified Payments Interface) has become the default way for individuals to send money in India.
