Why Each Punjab National Bank Branch in Jharkhand Has a Different BSR Code

Every Punjab National Bank branch in Jharkhand has a unique 7-digit BSR code structured as follows:

• Digits 1–3 (Bank Code): Always the same for all Punjab National Bank branches everywhere in India. These three digits are the bank's unique RBI-assigned identifier in the BSR system.
• Digits 4–7 (Branch Code): Four numeric digits unique to each branch. This is what differentiates one Punjab National Bank branch in Jharkhand from another. No two Punjab National Bank branches anywhere in India share the same full 7-digit BSR code.

Always quote 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 challan mismatches.

When You Need the Punjab National Bank Jharkhand BSR Code

TDS Challan Deposits (Challan 280, 281, 282)

When you deposit TDS at any Punjab National Bank branch in Jharkhand, the branch issues a challan counterfoil carrying the branch's 7-digit BSR code, date of deposit, and challan serial number — together forming the Challan Identification Number (CIN). This CIN is mandatory in every TDS return filed on the Income Tax portal. An incorrect Punjab National Bank BSR code means the challan stays unmatched in the TIN system and the taxpayer's Form 26AS never reflects the credit.

Form 16 (TDS Certificate)

Employers who deduct TDS from salaries and deposit it at a Punjab National Bank branch in Jharkhand must quote that branch's correct BSR code in their quarterly TDS returns (Form 24Q). This flows into Form 16 Part A issued to employees. An incorrect BSR code in Form 24Q results in an invalid Form 16 that TRACES cannot validate.

Form 26AS Tax Credit Matching

Form 26AS — the taxpayer's annual consolidated tax statement — matches every TDS entry using BSR code + date of deposit + challan serial number. A wrong Punjab National Bank Jharkhand BSR code in the TDS return means the credit never appears in Form 26AS, causing demand notices and ITR processing delays even though the tax was paid.
