Why every Union 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 SARITA VIHAR of Union Bank of India — its own 11-character IFSC. The code UBIN0556874 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 UBIN0556874 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 Sarita Vihar branch are processed through the Cheque Truncation System (CTS). Each cheque carries a unique 9-digit MICR code that pairs with IFSC UBIN0556874 for clearing. If you receive a cheque from this branch, both codes will be visible on the cheque leaf.
How to transfer money using IFSC UBIN0556874
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 UBIN0556874 across all three.
How to use IFSC UBIN0556874 for an NEFT transfer
NEFT (National Electronic Funds Transfer) is the most widely used method for sending money to Union Bank of India's SARITA VIHAR branch. NEFT now settles on a 24x7 basis in half-hourly batches and has no upper limit for retail customers (individual banks may impose their own caps).
- Log in to your internet banking or mobile banking app.
- Choose Add Beneficiary and select NEFT / Other Bank.
- Enter the beneficiary name, account number and the IFSC UBIN0556874.
- Confirm the bank name auto-populates as Union Bank of India and the branch as SARITA VIHAR.
- Approve the beneficiary using OTP. Once activated, transfer any amount and the credit will reflect in the next NEFT cycle.
Real-Time Gross Settlement to SARITA VIHAR

IMPS to Union Bank of India SARITA VIHAR (IFSC UBIN0556874)
IMPS (Immediate Payment Service) offers instant, 24x7 fund transfers up to ₹5 lakh per transaction. Provide the beneficiary's account number along with IFSC UBIN0556874 in your mobile or internet banking app, and the money is credited to the SARITA VIHAR branch account within seconds.
Comparing NEFT, RTGS and IMPS for transfers to Sarita Vihar
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 UBIN0556874:
- 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 SARITA VIHAR is still linked to IFSC UBIN0556874.
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.
UPI payments and IFSC UBIN0556874
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 Union Bank of India – SARITA VIHAR is still mapped to IFSC UBIN0556874. 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 UBIN0556874 and the beneficiary's account number to complete the transfer.
