NEFT Transfer

Use KARB0000166 when adding this branch as a beneficiary in NEFT transactions. NEFT operates in half-hourly batches from 12:30 AM to 12:00 AM on all days. Enter the IFSC, account number, and account holder name carefully to ensure successful transfer.

RTGS Transfer

For high-value transactions above ₹2 lakh, RTGS offers real-time gross settlement. Use KARB0000166 along with the beneficiary's exact account number. RTGS is available on working days from 7:00 AM to 6:00 PM.

IMPS & UPI

Always double-check the account number before confirming any transfer — the IFSC routes funds to the correct branch, but the account number specifies the exact recipient.
