UPI payments and IFSC SBIN0065157

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 State Bank of India – SHAKTI NAGAR is still mapped to IFSC SBIN0065157.
