About the Iraniyam branch
The Iraniyam branch of City Union Bank Limited is situated at AN COMPLEX,RS NO.101/13 ALAGAR KOIL MAIN ROAD,SUNDARARAJANPATTI,IRANIYAM-625104.

Why every City Union Bank Limited 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 IRANIYAM of City Union Bank Limited — its own 11-character IFSC. The code CIUB0000903 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 CIUB0000903 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 CIUB0000903
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 CIUB0000903 across all three.
How to use IFSC CIUB0000903 for an NEFT transfer
NEFT (National Electronic Funds Transfer) is the most widely used method for sending money to City Union Bank Limited's IRANIYAM 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).
- Log in to your internet banking or mobile banking app.
- Choose Add Beneficiary and select NEFT / Other Bank.
- Enter the beneficiary name, account number and the IFSC CIUB0000903.
- Confirm the bank name auto-populates as City Union Bank Limited and the branch as IRANIYAM.
- Approve the beneficiary using OTP. Once activated, transfer any amount and the credit will reflect in the next NEFT cycle.
RTGS transfers via IFSC CIUB0000903
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 City Union Bank Limited – IRANIYAM, ensure your bank's portal accepts IFSC CIUB0000903 while registering the beneficiary. RTGS is also available 24x7.
Send money instantly through IMPS

Comparing NEFT, RTGS and IMPS for transfers to Iraniyam
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 CIUB0000903:
- 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 IRANIYAM is still linked to IFSC CIUB0000903.
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 City Union Bank Limited's IRANIYAM branch, the IFSC CIUB0000903 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.
