About the bank

State Bank of India serves retail and corporate customers with a full range of deposit, lending, payments and digital banking products. Its Bodh Kharboo branch in Kargil, Jammu and Kashmir is part of this network and uses the IFSC code SBIN0061713 for all electronic settlement.

About this branch

The branch is located at STATE BANK OF INDIA BODH KHARBOO DISTRICT-KARGIL LADAKH ( UT)-194109. It serves the Kargil region and is connected to the bank's core banking platform, which means transactions initiated here are instantly visible across all other branches of State Bank of India. The IFSC SBIN0061713 is used to identify this branch on the RBI payments network.

Why every State Bank of India 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 BODH KHARBOO of State Bank of India — its own 11-character IFSC. The code SBIN0061713 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 SBIN0061713 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 SBIN0061713

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 SBIN0061713 across all three.

NEFT to State Bank of India, BODH KHARBOO using IFSC SBIN0061713

Comparing NEFT, RTGS and IMPS for transfers to Bodh Kharboo

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 SBIN0061713:

• 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 BODH KHARBOO is still linked to IFSC SBIN0061713.

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

UPI lets you pay using a short Virtual Payment Address instead of typing the IFSC every time, but behind the scenes every UPI mandate is mapped to an account number plus an IFSC.

That is why, even in the UPI era, it is still worth knowing the IFSC of your home branch — for failed UPI mandates, e-mandate set-ups, third-party platform onboarding and salary or refund credits.
