About Kotak Mahindra Bank Limited

Kotak Mahindra Bank Limited operates a wide network of branches across India, including the Mumbai Currency Chest branch in Mumbai.

Mumbai Currency Chest branch overview

Located at GROUND FLOOR, ADMIN BLDG., WESTERN INDUSTRIAL CO-OP ESTATE LTD., OPP SEEPZ MAIN GATE, MIDC (MAROL), ANDHERI EAST, the Mumbai Currency Chest branch handles regular banking operations such as account opening, fixed and recurring deposits, locker facilities, loans, and trade finance services where applicable. The IFSC KKBK0001340 is required for all interbank electronic transfers routed through this branch.

Why every Kotak Mahindra 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 MUMBAI CURRENCY CHEST of Kotak Mahindra Bank Limited — its own 11-character IFSC. The code KKBK0001340 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 KKBK0001340 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 KKBK0001340

NEFT to Kotak Mahindra Bank Limited, MUMBAI CURRENCY CHEST using IFSC KKBK0001340

Submit the transfer request, authenticate with OTP, and the amount will reach the beneficiary in the next clearing cycle.

RTGS transfers via IFSC KKBK0001340

Comparing NEFT, RTGS and IMPS for transfers to Mumbai Currency Chest

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 KKBK0001340:

• 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 MUMBAI CURRENCY CHEST is still linked to IFSC KKBK0001340.

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 KKBK0001340

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 Kotak Mahindra Bank Limited – MUMBAI CURRENCY CHEST is still mapped to IFSC KKBK0001340. 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 KKBK0001340 and the beneficiary's account number to complete the transfer.
