About this branch
The branch is located at SHASTRIJI WARD,NEAR GOVT REST HOUSE,HATTA P O, DAMOH,470775. It serves the Hatta region and is connected to the bank's core banking platform, which means transactions initiated here are instantly visible across all other branches of Esaf Small Finance Bank Limited. The IFSC ESMF0001434 is used to identify this branch on the RBI payments network.
Why every Esaf Small Finance 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 HATTA of Esaf Small Finance Bank Limited — its own 11-character IFSC. The code ESMF0001434 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 ESMF0001434 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 ESMF0001434

Comparing NEFT, RTGS and IMPS for transfers to Hatta
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 ESMF0001434:
- 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 HATTA is still linked to IFSC ESMF0001434.
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 Esaf Small Finance Bank Limited's HATTA branch, the IFSC ESMF0001434 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.
