Is my money safe?
Yes. In a merger every account, deposit and loan moves to the bank that took over, with the same balance. Only the names and codes change: the IFSC code, usually the MICR code, the cheque book, and sometimes the account number.
What to do if you still have the old code
- If you are paying someone: ask them for the new code, or find it here and confirm it with them. A payment to the old code is refused and the money returns to your account.
- If it is your own account: use the code printed on your new cheque book or passbook, or shown in the bank's app. Give the new code to your employer, tenants, clients, mutual funds, insurers and the income tax portal, so salaries, refunds and SIP or EMI debits keep working.
- Old cheques: cheque books of the merged bank stopped being accepted after a notice period. Ask your branch for a new one.
