Branch details at a glance

The role of IFSC in India's payments network

India's electronic payment infrastructure — NEFT, RTGS, IMPS, UPI and the National Automated Clearing House (NACH) — is built on a single principle: every participating bank branch must be uniquely identifiable by an alphanumeric code. The Reserve Bank of India introduced the IFSC system to fulfil this requirement, and that is how Kotak Mahindra Bank Limited's THIRUVANANTHAPURAM - ATTINGAL branch came to be assigned the code KKBK0009213.

Whether you are receiving a salary on the first of the month, paying a vendor invoice, settling an EMI, or accepting a refund from an e-commerce platform, the IFSC is the silent piece of metadata that tells the network where your account lives. Without IFSC KKBK0009213, money simply cannot be routed to the THIRUVANANTHAPURAM - ATTINGAL branch electronically.

MICR code & cheque clearing

Apart from IFSC, every cheque book issued by Kotak Mahindra Bank Limited carries a 9-digit MICR (Magnetic Ink Character Recognition) code that is read by cheque-sorting machines. The MICR code, the IFSC KKBK0009213 and the account number together uniquely identify the Thiruvananthapuram - Attingal branch and your account. The MICR for this branch is printed at the bottom of your cheque leaves.

UPI payments and IFSC KKBK0009213

UPI (Unified Payments Interface) has become the default way for individuals to send money in India.
