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 Union Bank of India's HUDIKERI branch came to be assigned the code UBIN0900842.

Without IFSC UBIN0900842, money simply cannot be routed to the HUDIKERI branch electronically.
MICR code & cheque clearing
Apart from IFSC, every cheque book issued by Union Bank of India carries a 9-digit MICR (Magnetic Ink Character Recognition) code that is read by cheque-sorting machines. The MICR code, the IFSC UBIN0900842 and the account number together uniquely identify the Hudikeri branch and your account. The MICR for this branch is printed at the bottom of your cheque leaves.
