Difference Between IFSC and MICR Code
IFSC (11 alphanumeric characters) is used for online transfers — NEFT, RTGS, IMPS. MICR (9 numeric digits) is printed at the bottom of cheques using magnetic ink for cheque clearing. IFSC is for digital transfers; MICR is for paper cheques. Both are branch-specific and unique per branch.
