About the bank

HDFC Bank serves retail and corporate customers with a full range of deposit, lending, payments and digital banking products. Its Dahanu branch in Thane, Maharashtra is part of this network and uses the IFSC code HDFC0000173 for all electronic settlement.

About this branch

The branch is located at MATRU ASHISHIRANI ROADDAHANU, THANE DISTRICT DAHANU MAHARASHTRA 401602. It serves the Thane region and is connected to the bank's core banking platform, which means transactions initiated here are instantly visible across all other branches of HDFC Bank. The IFSC HDFC0000173 is used to identify this branch on the RBI payments network.

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 DAHANU of HDFC Bank — its own 11-character IFSC. The code HDFC0000173 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 HDFC0000173 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 HDFC0000173

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 HDFC0000173 across all three.

NEFT to HDFC Bank, DAHANU using IFSC HDFC0000173

National Electronic Funds Transfer is the simplest way to move money into an account at this branch. NEFT works around the clock, including Sundays and public holidays, and settles in half-hourly batches.

To send funds, add the recipient as a beneficiary in your bank's online portal, key in the account number, paste the IFSC HDFC0000173, and confirm that the system picks up HDFC Bank – DAHANU. Submit the transfer request, authenticate with OTP, and the amount will reach the beneficiary in the next clearing cycle.

Real-Time Gross Settlement to DAHANU

If you need to transfer ₹2 lakh or more in one go to an account at HDFC Bank's DAHANU branch, RTGS is the right channel. Each transaction is settled individually in real time. Use IFSC HDFC0000173 while initiating the transfer and the credit will appear within minutes.

Send money instantly through IMPS

For a real-time, anytime transfer to HDFC Bank – DAHANU, use IMPS. With IFSC HDFC0000173 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 Dahanu

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 HDFC0000173:

• 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 DAHANU is still linked to IFSC HDFC0000173.

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.

UPI payments and IFSC HDFC0000173

UPI (Unified Payments Interface) has become the default way for individuals to send money in India. While most UPI transactions are addressed using a Virtual Payment Address (VPA) like name@bank, the underlying account at HDFC Bank – DAHANU is still mapped to IFSC HDFC0000173. 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. The VPA acts as a friendly alias on top of the same plumbing.

If a UPI transfer to or from this branch fails, the most common reasons are an inactive UPI handle, a daily limit breach or a temporary outage at one of the participating banks — not the IFSC. You can always fall back to NEFT or IMPS using the IFSC HDFC0000173 and the beneficiary's account number to complete the transfer.
