About General Post Office IFSC codes

General Post Office is a public sector bank. It has 1 branch with an IFSC code in 1 state or union territory. Its IFSC codes begin with SBIN, the bank code of State Bank of India. Smaller banks often send and receive NEFT and RTGS payments through a larger bank (a sub-member arrangement), and their IFSC codes then carry that bank's four letters. An example is SBIN0000DOP (General Post Office Imps, Mumbai).

General Post Office is a public sector bank. A public sector bank is a bank in which the Government of India holds most of the shares. It is regulated by the Reserve Bank of India like every other bank, and it usually has a wide branch network, including in small towns and villages, and handles many government payments and pension accounts.

All its branches with an IFSC code are in Maharashtra.

General Post Office does not have a bank code of its own in these payment systems. It is a sub-member of State Bank of India: payments to its accounts travel through State Bank of India, which is why its IFSC codes begin with SBIN. For the sender nothing changes: use the code of the General Post Office branch exactly as it is given.
