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 HDFC0008015:

• UPI — best for small peer-to-peer payments using a VPA; the underlying account at NUNGAMBAKKAM is still linked to IFSC HDFC0008015.

• Spaces or hyphens. Do not put spaces in the IFSC. It is exactly 11 characters: HDFC0008015.
• Wrong branch. A bank can have dozens of branches in the same city. Make sure you are using the IFSC for the actual branch where the beneficiary holds the account, not just any nearby branch.
