About this branch
The branch is located at MANEED MANEED PIRAVOM VIA. It serves the Maneed 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 FDRL0001213 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 MANEED of Federal Bank — its own 11-character IFSC. The code FDRL0001213 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 FDRL0001213 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 FDRL0001213
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 FDRL0001213 across all three.
How to use IFSC FDRL0001213 for an NEFT transfer
NEFT (National Electronic Funds Transfer) is the most widely used method for sending money to Federal Bank's MANEED 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.

- Approve the beneficiary using OTP. Once activated, transfer any amount and the credit will reflect in the next NEFT cycle.
RTGS transfers via IFSC FDRL0001213
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 Federal Bank – MANEED, ensure your bank's portal accepts IFSC FDRL0001213 while registering the beneficiary. RTGS is also available 24x7.
Send money instantly through IMPS
For a real-time, anytime transfer to Federal Bank – MANEED, use IMPS. With IFSC FDRL0001213 and the beneficiary's account number you can move up to ₹5 lakh per transaction with instant credit, any day of the year.
Comparing NEFT, RTGS and IMPS for transfers to Maneed
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 FDRL0001213:
- 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 MANEED is still linked to IFSC FDRL0001213.
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 Federal Bank's MANEED branch, the IFSC FDRL0001213 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.
Digital banking channels

The IFSC FDRL0001213 is the link between the digital channel and the branch ledger; once a transaction is confirmed, the credit or debit is reflected in the same core banking system that the branch officers see.
MICR code & cheque clearing
Apart from IFSC, every cheque book issued by Federal Bank carries a 9-digit MICR (Magnetic Ink Character Recognition) code that is read by cheque-sorting machines. The MICR code, the IFSC FDRL0001213 and the account number together uniquely identify the Maneed branch and your account. The MICR for this branch is printed at the bottom of your cheque leaves.
