About the Hanur branch

The Hanur branch of Karnataka Grameena Bank is situated at OLD SANTHEPET STREET HANUR KOLLEGALA TALUK CHAMARAJANAGARA DISTRICT.

Why every Karnataka Grameena 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 HANUR of Karnataka Grameena Bank — its own 11-character IFSC. The code PKGB0012055 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 PKGB0012055 the same way you would treat your account number — verify it once and save it carefully for future use.

UPI payments and IFSC PKGB0012055

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 Karnataka Grameena Bank – HANUR is still mapped to IFSC PKGB0012055.

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.
