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.

Without IFSC UBIN0542873, money simply cannot be routed to the MUNDURU branch electronically.
