Common questions

What is the IFSC code for Canara Bank in Kottayam?

There is no single code — each of the 15 branches in Kottayam has its own. They all begin with CNRB0, and the last six characters identify the individual branch. Find your recipient's branch in the table above to get the exact one.

Which Canara Bank branch in Kottayam should I send to?

The one where the account was opened — the code is tied to that branch, not to the city, and Canara Bank has 15 of them in Kottayam. 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 Kottayam?

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 Canara Bank the biggest bank in Kottayam?

No. With 15 branches it ranks 7th in Kottayam, behind State Bank of India, which has 97. 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].
