Branch details at a glance

Why every The Gujarat State Cooperative Bank Limited 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 THE SABARKANTHA DIST CEN CO OP BANK LTD MEHTAPURA of The Gujarat State Cooperative Bank Limited — its own 11-character IFSC. The code GSCB0SKB116 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 GSCB0SKB116 the same way you would treat your account number — verify it once and save it carefully for future use.

MICR & cheque-truncation details

Cheques drawn on the The Sabarkantha Dist Cen Co Op Bank Ltd Mehtapura branch are processed through the Cheque Truncation System (CTS).

Comparing NEFT, RTGS and IMPS for transfers to The Sabarkantha Dist Cen Co Op Bank Ltd Mehtapura

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 GSCB0SKB116:

• 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 THE SABARKANTHA DIST CEN CO OP BANK LTD MEHTAPURA is still linked to IFSC GSCB0SKB116.

UPI payments and IFSC GSCB0SKB116

UPI (Unified Payments Interface) has become the default way for individuals to send money in India.

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.
