Top 5 Banks Near Electronic City Bengaluru

Finding banks near Electronic City Bengaluru is easy. Choosing the right IFSC code is where people get caught out. SBI has one branch officially called “Electronic City” at Hebbagodi, and another called “Electronic City Bangalore” at Meenakshi Towers in Singasandra, which has a different PIN code, 560068. Canara Bank has a similar pair: “Electronic City” and “Electronics City.” One missing letter separates two different branches.

This guide lists five banks with their Electronic City branches, IFSC codes and timings, drawn from bank websites and established IFSC directories. Always confirm the IFSC in your banking app or on your chequebook before sending money.

Branches at a Glance

1. State Bank of India: Two Branches, Almost the Same Name

SBI’s “Electronic City” branch (IFSC SBIN0041166) is at No. 56B, 6th Cross, Hosur Main Road, Hebbagodi PO, Electronic City Phase I.

SBI’s “Electronic City Bangalore” branch (IFSC SBIN0050922) is at Meenakshi Towers, Singasandra, Hosur Main Road, with PIN 560068. Singasandra is on the city side of Hosur Road, not inside Electronic City itself.

Why this matters:

• Salary credits and transfers use your branch’s specific IFSC
• Using the wrong one can delay or return a payment
• Check your passbook or cheque leaf for the exact code

Listed timings: 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., Monday to Friday, and on Saturdays except the 2nd and 4th.

Best for: government-linked services, pensions and public sector banking.

2. ICICI Bank: Phase I, Phase II and a Branch Inside Infosys

ICICI Bank has one of the widest networks in the area:

• Phase I (ICIC0000360): 7-P, Electronic City Phase I, near the Electronic City Industrial Township Authority (ELCITA)
• Phase II (ICIC0003132): 17-B, Electronic City Phase II, Hosur Road
• Infosys branch (ICIC0000552): listed inside Infosys Technologies Limited, Third Cross, Electronic City

That last one is unusual: a bank branch listed inside a company campus, serving one of India’s largest employers.

Services at the Phase I and II branches include:

• Forex, useful for employees travelling on onsite assignments
• Lockers, gold loans and a demat desk
• ASBA for IPO applications and exchange of damaged notes

Timings: branch hours are 9:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. Cash hours differ between ICICI’s own pages, with some listing 2 p.m. and others 3 p.m. Plan cash deposits for the morning.

A data glitch: an older ICICI page lists the Phase I branch under “Tamil Nadu.” The current page correctly says Karnataka.

3. HDFC Bank: At Sky Wards Tech Park

HDFC Bank’s Electronic City branch (IFSC HDFC0000549) is on the 1st floor of Sky Wards Tech Park, No. 47/11, Electronic City Main Road.

It’s in the same Sky-Wards complex as Mad Doh, one of the area’s highest-rated cafés, so it’s easy to combine banking with a coffee break.

Listed timings: 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on weekdays and working Saturdays.

Best for: HDFC customers working in Phase 1 and around Electronic City Main Road.

4. Canara Bank: On a Road Named After a Solar Company

Canara Bank’s “Electronic City” branch (IFSC CNRB0003006, MICR 560015148) is at Plot No. VI-R 22, Tata B.P. Solar Road, Electronic City Phase I.

The road’s name is a small piece of local history. Tata BP Solar, a solar-panel company, once had a major presence in Electronic City, and the road still carries its name.

A second branch, “Electronics City Bangalore” (IFSC CNRB0010494), is at No. 19/12/35/1, Konappana Agrahara, Hosur Main Road.

Best for: public sector banking and customers near Konappana Agrahara.
