About Federal Bank
Federal Bank operates a wide network of branches across India, including the Bellary branch in Bellary. Each branch is enabled for NEFT, RTGS, IMPS and core banking, allowing customers to send and receive money anywhere in the country using a unique IFSC – in this case, FDRL0001589.
About this branch
The branch is located at MODI CHAMBERS, 2ND CROSS, GANDHINAGAR, BELLARY. It serves the Bellary region and is connected to the bank's core banking platform, which means transactions initiated here are instantly visible across all other branches of Federal Bank. The IFSC FDRL0001589 is used to identify this branch on the RBI payments network.
Why every Federal 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 BELLARY of Federal Bank — its own 11-character IFSC. The code FDRL0001589 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 FDRL0001589 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 FDRL0001589

Comparing NEFT, RTGS and IMPS for transfers to Bellary
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 FDRL0001589:
- 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.

- UPI — best for small peer-to-peer payments using a VPA; the underlying account at BELLARY is still linked to IFSC FDRL0001589.

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.
