How to Find Your Canara Bank BSR Code in Chennai

• Step 1 — Filter if needed: Type your branch name in the search box above. The list filters instantly as you type.
• Step 2 — Click your branch: Click the branch where the TDS deposit was or will be made. It must be the exact branch — not just any Canara Bank branch in Chennai.
• Step 3 — Copy the BSR code: The result page shows the 7-digit BSR code with a large Copy button in monospace font. It also shows the IFSC code, MICR code, full address, and phone number.

You can verify the BSR code by cross-checking with the TDS challan counterfoil issued by the branch after your deposit, or with the downloadable challan PDF from the Canara Bank net banking portal.

What is the BSR Code for Canara Bank in Chennai?

Every Canara Bank branch in Chennai has a unique 7-digit BSR code structured as follows:

• Digits 1–3 (Bank Code): All Canara Bank branches — in Chennai and across India — share the same 3-digit bank code prefix assigned by the RBI in the BSR system.
• Digits 4–7 (Branch Code): Four numeric digits unique to each branch. Even two Canara Bank branches on the same street in Chennai will have different 4-digit branch codes. This is the only part that changes between branches.

Always enter all 7 digits when filing on the Income Tax e-Filing portal. Dropping leading zeros — e.g. entering 20299 instead of 0020299 — is the most common error causing TDS challan mismatches in Form 26AS.

When You Need the Canara Bank Chennai BSR Code

TDS Challan Deposit at Canara Bank Chennai Branches

When you deposit TDS at any Canara Bank branch in Chennai, the branch issues a challan counterfoil carrying that branch's 7-digit BSR code, the date of deposit, and a 5-digit challan serial number. These three values together form the Challan Identification Number (CIN) — mandatory in every TDS return (24Q, 26Q, 27Q, 27EQ) filed on the Income Tax portal. An incorrect Canara Bank Chennai BSR code in the challan means the TDS credit never appears in the deductee's Form 26AS.

Form 16 and Quarterly TDS Returns

Employers depositing TDS at a Canara Bank branch in Chennai must quote that branch's BSR code in their quarterly TDS returns (Form 24Q). This BSR code flows directly into Form 16 Part A issued to employees. An incorrect BSR code produces an invalid Form 16 that the TRACES system cannot verify — creating problems for employees during ITR filing.

Form 26AS Tax Credit Statement

The Income Tax Department matches every TDS entry in Form 26AS using BSR code + date + challan serial number. A wrong Canara Bank Chennai BSR code causes the credit to remain permanently unmatched — triggering demand notices and delaying ITR processing even when the tax was actually deposited at the correct branch.
