About the bank
Jammu and Kashmir Bank Limited serves retail and corporate customers with a full range of deposit, lending, payments and digital banking products. Its Prithviraj Road branch in Delhi, Delhi is part of this network and uses the IFSC code JAKA0PRROAD for all electronic settlement.
Prithviraj Road branch overview
Located at 5-PRITHVIRAJ ROAD, the Prithviraj Road branch handles regular banking operations such as account opening, fixed and recurring deposits, locker facilities, loans, and trade finance services where applicable. The IFSC JAKA0PRROAD is required for all interbank electronic transfers routed through this branch.
Why every Jammu and Kashmir Bank Limited 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 PRITHVIRAJ ROAD of Jammu and Kashmir Bank Limited — its own 11-character IFSC. The code JAKA0PRROAD 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 JAKA0PRROAD the same way you would treat your account number — verify it once and save it carefully for future use.
