Are Small Finance Bank Deposits Safe?
Yes. All Small Finance Banks are regulated by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) under the Banking Regulation Act, 1949. Deposits up to ₹5 lakh per depositor are insured under the Deposit Insurance and Credit Guarantee Corporation (DICGC). SFBs typically offer higher interest rates on savings accounts and FDs than commercial banks.

Why SFBs Have Unique IFSC Codes
Each Small Finance Bank branch has its own unique IFSC code just like any scheduled commercial bank. SFBs participate fully in India's electronic payment network (NEFT/RTGS/IMPS) and have IFSC codes assigned by RBI. The first 4 characters identify the SFB, and the last 6 identify the specific branch.
