Branch details at a glance

Bank profile

Kotak Mahindra Bank Limited is among the recognised banks listed on the Reserve Bank of India's payments network. The Saundare branch — IFSC KKBK0002120 — extends the bank's services to customers in and around Saundare, Maharashtra.

Saundare branch overview

Located at KOTAK MAHINDRA BANK LTD SURVEY NO 59 MALE GALLI SULAKHE HIGH SCHOOL ROAD DISTRICT SOLAPUR SAUNDARE 413411 MAHARASHTRA, the Saundare branch handles regular banking operations such as account opening, fixed and recurring deposits, locker facilities, loans, and trade finance services where applicable. The IFSC KKBK0002120 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 SAUNDARE of Kotak Mahindra Bank Limited — its own 11-character IFSC. The code KKBK0002120 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 KKBK0002120 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 KKBK0002120

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 KKBK0002120 across all three.

NEFT to Kotak Mahindra Bank Limited, SAUNDARE using IFSC KKBK0002120

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 KKBK0002120, and confirm that the system picks up Kotak Mahindra Bank Limited – SAUNDARE. Submit the transfer request, authenticate with OTP, and the amount will reach the beneficiary in the next clearing cycle.

RTGS transfers via IFSC KKBK0002120

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 Kotak Mahindra Bank Limited – SAUNDARE, ensure your bank's portal accepts IFSC KKBK0002120 while registering the beneficiary. RTGS is also available 24x7.

IMPS to Kotak Mahindra Bank Limited SAUNDARE (IFSC KKBK0002120)

IMPS (Immediate Payment Service) offers instant, 24x7 fund transfers up to ₹5 lakh per transaction. Provide the beneficiary's account number along with IFSC KKBK0002120 in your mobile or internet banking app, and the money is credited to the SAUNDARE branch account within seconds.

Comparing NEFT, RTGS and IMPS for transfers to Saundare

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 KKBK0002120:

• 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 SAUNDARE is still linked to IFSC KKBK0002120.

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 KKBK0002120

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 – SAUNDARE is still mapped to IFSC KKBK0002120. 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 KKBK0002120 and the beneficiary's account number to complete the transfer.

Common mistakes to avoid when using IFSC KKBK0002120

An incorrect IFSC almost always results in a failed transfer or, worse, a credit to the wrong branch. Before you click Confirm on a transfer to Kotak Mahindra Bank Limited – SAUNDARE, double-check for these issues:

• Confusing 0 with O. The fifth character of every IFSC is the digit 0, not the letter O. Read carefully.
• Spaces or hyphens. Do not put spaces in the IFSC. It is exactly 11 characters: KKBK0002120.
• Wrong branch. A bank can have dozens of branches in the same city. Make sure you are using the IFSC for the actual branch where the beneficiary holds the account, not just any nearby branch.
• Old IFSC after a merger. If two banks have merged, the IFSC may have been reissued. Always verify with a recent passbook or cheque leaf.
• Copy-paste from chat. Auto-correct on phones can silently change letters in IFSC codes. Type carefully or copy from a trusted source like the cheque book.
