Common questions
What is the IFSC code for Indian Overseas Bank in Varanasi?

Which Indian Overseas Bank branch in Varanasi should I send to?
The one where the account was opened — the code is tied to that branch, not to the city, and Indian Overseas Bank has 18 of them in Varanasi. If your recipient is not sure which is theirs, it is printed on their cheque book and shown in their banking app.
Do I need the IFSC code to receive money in Varanasi?
Yes. For a local transfer into an Indian bank account you need the account number and the IFSC code of the receiving branch. Without the IFSC the payment cannot be routed.
Is Indian Overseas Bank the biggest bank in Varanasi?
No. With 18 branches it ranks 9th in Varanasi, behind State Bank of India, which has 76. Branch count is not the same as which bank is best for receiving money from abroad — any Indian account can receive a local rupee transfer.
What if I have the wrong IFSC code?
The transfer will normally be rejected and the money returned, but this takes time and a fee may apply. Always confirm the code with the recipient before sending.
Where this data comes from
Branch names, addresses and IFSC codes are taken from the Reserve Bank of India's list of NEFT-enabled branches, snapshot of 2026-08-21. The RBI compiles it from the participating banks themselves, so spellings follow the banks' own records. We normalise state names and city spellings, merge duplicate names for the same city, and exclude administrative entries such as RTGS head offices and service branches from branch counts. Nothing is added to the data. Found something wrong? Write to [email protected].
