How Many Digits in Account Number of Banks in India

Every customer of a bank is assigned a unique account number, and that account number will be used in every banking operation related to that person. An account number is a special series of digits and, often, letters and other characters that describe the account owner and give access to that account. You can find your account number at the bottom of your paper check.

An account number may vary from 9 digits to 18 digits, and it depends on the bank how many numbers should be included in an account number. An account number contains a pure numeric pattern, but some foreign banks use the alpha-numeric combination in the account number.

Two users cannot have the same account number in the same bank. As the cases of banking fraud are increasing day by day, banks are working on making every account number different from users of other banks also.

The reports of Reserve Bank of India(RBI) states that there are only 20 banks in India which has a serial running number and rest of the banks has some indicated characteristic included in it.

The added characteristics in the bank that are embedded are account type, account status, product code, bank code, branch code, check digits, year of opening, etc. 40 out of 78 banks do not have a check digit as part of the form of their account number. Many banks (67 out of 78) have implemented branch code as part of the specification of the account number.

Many banks use company code as a part of the specification of the account number. It varies from bank to bank on how the implementation procedure is planned by the bank and depending on that total number of characters varies in the account number.
