Branch details at a glance

About this branch

The branch is located at PERINKULAM, BANK ROAD ALLATHUR, PALAKKAD DIST. KERALA STATE, 678541. It serves the Alathur region and is connected to the bank's core banking platform, which means transactions initiated here are instantly visible across all other branches of Dhanalakshmi Bank. The IFSC DLXB0000061 is used to identify this branch on the RBI payments network.

Why every Dhanalakshmi 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 PERINKULAM of Dhanalakshmi Bank — its own 11-character IFSC. The code DLXB0000061 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 DLXB0000061 the same way you would treat your account number — verify it once and save it carefully for future use.

Submit the transfer request, authenticate with OTP, and the amount will reach the beneficiary in the next clearing cycle.

RTGS transfers via IFSC DLXB0000061

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.

NEFT vs RTGS vs IMPS — which one should you use?

All three modes accept the IFSC DLXB0000061 for Dhanalakshmi Bank – PERINKULAM, but they differ in speed, minimum amount and use case. The table below summarises the differences so you can pick the right channel for the situation at hand.

UPI payments and IFSC DLXB0000061

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 Dhanalakshmi Bank – PERINKULAM is still mapped to IFSC DLXB0000061. 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 DLXB0000061 and the beneficiary's account number to complete the transfer.
