About the Tohana branch

The Tohana branch of Punjab National Bank is situated at CHANDIGARH ROAD TOHANA,DIST.FATEHABAD 125120. Customers visiting this branch can complete cash deposits, withdrawals, demand draft requests, cheque clearing, passbook updates and KYC formalities. For online transactions to or from this branch, the IFSC code PUNB0055010 is used.

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 TOHANA of Punjab National Bank — its own 11-character IFSC. The code PUNB0055010 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 PUNB0055010 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 PUNB0055010

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 PUNB0055010 across all three.

How to use IFSC PUNB0055010 for an NEFT transfer

5. Approve the beneficiary using OTP. Once activated, transfer any amount and the credit will reflect in the next NEFT cycle.

RTGS transfers via IFSC PUNB0055010

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 Punjab National Bank – TOHANA, ensure your bank's portal accepts IFSC PUNB0055010 while registering the beneficiary. RTGS is also available 24x7.

IMPS to Punjab National Bank TOHANA (IFSC PUNB0055010)

IMPS (Immediate Payment Service) offers instant, 24x7 fund transfers up to ₹5 lakh per transaction. Provide the beneficiary's account number along with IFSC PUNB0055010 in your mobile or internet banking app, and the money is credited to the TOHANA branch account within seconds.

NEFT vs RTGS vs IMPS — which one should you use?

All three modes accept the IFSC PUNB0055010 for Punjab National Bank – TOHANA, but they differ in speed, minimum amount and use case. The table below summarises the differences so you can pick the right channel for the situation at hand.

For most retail customers crediting the Tohana branch, NEFT or IMPS will be the quickest and most economical option. RTGS comes in for one-off, high-value movements such as property purchases, vendor settlements or large gifts.

UPI payments and IFSC PUNB0055010

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 Punjab National Bank – TOHANA is still mapped to IFSC PUNB0055010. 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 PUNB0055010 and the beneficiary's account number to complete the transfer.

Apart from IFSC, every cheque book issued by Punjab National Bank carries a 9-digit MICR (Magnetic Ink Character Recognition) code that is read by cheque-sorting machines. The MICR code, the IFSC PUNB0055010 and the account number together uniquely identify the Tohana branch and your account. The MICR for this branch is printed at the bottom of your cheque leaves.
