About the bank

Punjab National Bank serves retail and corporate customers with a full range of deposit, lending, payments and digital banking products. Its Jhajjar branch in Jhajjar, Haryana is part of this network and uses the IFSC code PUNB0220200 for all electronic settlement.

Jhajjar branch overview

Located at NEAR BUS STAND, JHAJJAR,DISTT. JHAJJAR, the Jhajjar branch handles regular banking operations such as account opening, fixed and recurring deposits, locker facilities, loans, and trade finance services where applicable. The IFSC PUNB0220200 is required for all interbank electronic transfers routed through this branch.

Why every Punjab National 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 JHAJJAR of Punjab National Bank — its own 11-character IFSC. The code PUNB0220200 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 PUNB0220200 the same way you would treat your account number — verify it once and save it carefully for future use.

Comparing NEFT, RTGS and IMPS for transfers to Jhajjar

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 PUNB0220200:

• 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.

• UPI — best for small peer-to-peer payments using a VPA; the underlying account at JHAJJAR is still linked to IFSC PUNB0220200.

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.

How UPI relates to the IFSC code
