RBI Rule : MICR, IFSC Code Must on Passbook, A/C statement

The RBI (Reserve Bank) has made it mandatory for all banks to print the MICR and IFSE code on the passbook and statement of account of the customers.

RBI said in a statement,  “Now  the MICR code is available on the cheque leaf along with the IFSC code of the branch. On a review it has been decided that this information should also be made available in the passbook and statement of account of the bank account holders,” .

As per RBI guidelines, MICR code is necessary for all ECS (electronic clearing services- credit and debit) transactions. IFSC code is a pre-requisite for NEFT (national electronic funds transfer) and RTGS (real time gross settlement) transactions.
