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 State Bank of India's VENKOJIPALEM ROAD branch came to be assigned the code SBIN0015214.

Without IFSC SBIN0015214, money simply cannot be routed to the VENKOJIPALEM ROAD branch electronically.
MICR code & cheque clearing
Apart from IFSC, every cheque book issued by State Bank of India carries a 9-digit MICR (Magnetic Ink Character Recognition) code that is read by cheque-sorting machines.
