Bank Branch code or BSR code is a 7 digit code allotted to banks by RBI



MICR

The bottom line on all checks printed and used in North America (and many other countries worldwide) is printed using a special font called MICR (short for Magnetic Ink Character Recognition). MICR is usually pronounced My-ker. The bottom line on a check must always be printed in the MICR typeface using a special magnetic ink.

The MICR line on a check allows the check information to be automatically read by inexpensive machines. This is the only way that huge numbers of checks can be processed each day.
