How to Use IFSC Code PUNB0048420 for Money Transfers
There are three main ways to send money using this IFSC code — NEFT, RTGS, and IMPS. They're not interchangeable, and picking the wrong one can mean delays or unnecessary fees.
NEFT Transfer (Best for most routine transfers)
NEFT (National Electronic Funds Transfer) works in 30-minute settlement batches, runs 24×7 including holidays, and there's no minimum or maximum transfer limit. Banks cannot charge fees for NEFT transfers — RBI eliminated those fees in January 2020. I use NEFT for practically everything: paying suppliers, rent, EMI mandates. Enter IFSC PUNB0048420 as the branch code when setting up a beneficiary.
RTGS Transfer (For ₹2 lakh and above)
RTGS (Real Time Gross Settlement) is the one where funds actually move in real-time — not batched. Minimum amount is ₹2,00,000 and there's no upper cap. Banks typically charge ₹20–₹50. If you're doing a property transaction, business payment, or any large transfer, RTGS with IFSC PUNB0048420 is the right choice. Settlement is essentially immediate.
IMPS Transfer (For urgent transfers of any size, 24×7)
IMPS (Immediate Payment Service) is instant, works on bank holidays and at 2am, and the limit is ₹5 lakh per transaction. Small charges apply (usually ₹5–₹25). Honestly if something is genuinely urgent, IMPS with IFSC PUNB0048420 is the fastest route. Money reaches the recipient's account in under a minute in most cases.
| Transfer Type | Speed | Min Amount | Max Amount | Available |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| NEFT | ~30 min batches | No minimum | No limit | 24×7, 365 days |
| RTGS | Real-time | ₹2,00,000 | No limit | 24×7, 365 days |
| IMPS | Instant (seconds) | No minimum | ₹5,00,000 | 24×7, 365 days |
