About HDFC Bank

HDFC Bank operates a wide network of branches across India, including the Daspalla branch in Daspalla. 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, HDFC0008196.

Daspalla branch overview

Located at GROUND FLOOR MAIN ROAD HARIDABADI PO DASPALLA DIST NAYAGARH DASPALLA ODISHA 752091, the Daspalla branch handles regular banking operations such as account opening, fixed and recurring deposits, locker facilities, loans, and trade finance services where applicable. The IFSC HDFC0008196 is required for all interbank electronic transfers routed through this branch.

Why every HDFC 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 DASPALLA of HDFC Bank — its own 11-character IFSC. The code HDFC0008196 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 HDFC0008196 the same way you would treat your account number — verify it once and save it carefully for future use.
