Use this API to validate the given bank account number and IFSC. This is a sync verification request.
The API returns a response in two cases:
- The bank account or IFSC or both are invalid.
- The bank account and IFSC combination are verified.
Additionally, if a request is made again using the same bank account details while the previous request is being processed you will get a response stating that the request is in process along with the refId.
To fetch the status of such a request you can use the Get Verification Status API, by passing the refId as bvRefId.
Bank account verification uses the IMPS network. Verification will return the account status as "VALID" for any valid IFSC of the bank where the account exists. The API also returns city, branch and MICR in the response. However, these are returned on the basis of the IFSC provided. It is possible that the bank account may be linked to a different IFSC in the same bank.
