What Is a Canara Bank Account Number?

A Canara Bank account number is the unique numeric code assigned to your savings, current, or NRI account at the time it's opened.

Your account number and the applicable IFSC code are generally required for bank transfers such as NEFT and RTGS. Canara Bank assigns an account number when your bank account is opened. You'll need it for salary credits, receiving NEFT or RTGS payments, and linking your account to UPI apps.

How Do You Check Your Canara Bank Account Balance Using Your Account Number?

You can check your Canara Bank account balance by giving a missed call to 8886610360 from your registered mobile number, without needing to type your account number at all.

Here's how the missed call balance service works:

1. Give a missed call to 8886610360 from the mobile number registered with Canara Bank.
2. You will receive the balance enquiry response on your registered mobile number.
3. This facility is available 24 hours per day and free of cost.

Alternatively, to know about the last 5 transactions made by your account, you can call to 09015734734 for English or 09015613613 for Hindi.

What Is the Format of a Canara Bank IFSC Code?

A Canara Bank IFSC code is an 11-character alphanumeric code, starting with the 4 letters CNRB, followed by a 0, then a 6-digit branch identifier.

This code is required alongside your account number for every NEFT, RTGS, or IMPS transfer into your Canara Bank account. Sharing the account number alone is not enough for another bank to route a payment to you.

2. Look at your cheque leaf, printed at the bottom along with the IFSC code.
3. Log into Canara Bank's net banking portal and view your account details on the dashboard.
4. Open the Canara Bank mobile banking app and check the account summary screen.
