Branch details at a glance

Karanje branch overview

Located at ANNAPURNA BLDG., GURUPRASAD COLONY, DATTANAGAR, ITI ROAD, KARANJE - SATARA, PINCODE - 415002, the Karanje branch handles regular banking operations such as account opening, fixed and recurring deposits, locker facilities, loans, and trade finance services where applicable. The IFSC IBKL0000558 is required for all interbank electronic transfers routed through this branch.

Why every IDBI 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 KARANJE of IDBI Bank — its own 11-character IFSC. The code IBKL0000558 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 IBKL0000558 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 IBKL0000558

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 IBKL0000558 across all three.

NEFT to IDBI Bank, KARANJE using IFSC IBKL0000558

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 IBKL0000558, and confirm that the system picks up IDBI Bank – KARANJE. Submit the transfer request, authenticate with OTP, and the amount will reach the beneficiary in the next clearing cycle.

RTGS transfers via IFSC IBKL0000558

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 IDBI Bank – KARANJE, ensure your bank's portal accepts IFSC IBKL0000558 while registering the beneficiary. RTGS is also available 24x7.

IMPS to IDBI Bank KARANJE (IFSC IBKL0000558)

IMPS (Immediate Payment Service) offers instant, 24x7 fund transfers up to ₹5 lakh per transaction. Provide the beneficiary's account number along with IFSC IBKL0000558 in your mobile or internet banking app, and the money is credited to the KARANJE branch account within seconds.

NEFT vs RTGS vs IMPS — which one should you use?

All three modes accept the IFSC IBKL0000558 for IDBI Bank – KARANJE, but they differ in speed, minimum amount and use case. The table below summarises the differences so you can pick the right channel for the situation at hand.

For most retail customers crediting the Karanje branch, NEFT or IMPS will be the quickest and most economical option. RTGS comes in for one-off, high-value movements such as property purchases, vendor settlements or large gifts.

UPI payments and IFSC IBKL0000558

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 IDBI Bank – KARANJE is still mapped to IFSC IBKL0000558. 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 IBKL0000558 and the beneficiary's account number to complete the transfer.

Digital banking channels

Most day-to-day work that customers used to do at the Karanje branch counter can now be completed digitally — adding a beneficiary, transferring funds, applying for a fixed deposit, raising a service request or downloading account statements. The IFSC IBKL0000558 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 IDBI Bank carries a 9-digit MICR (Magnetic Ink Character Recognition) code that is read by cheque-sorting machines. The MICR code, the IFSC IBKL0000558 and the account number together uniquely identify the Karanje branch and your account. The MICR for this branch is printed at the bottom of your cheque leaves.
