    I'm not an indian but know bit of these codes. The IFSC code is not the SWIFT or the MICR code. If you input SWIFT code for IFSC it shouldn't work.

    SWIFT Code is for International Money transfers while IFSC code is for domestic transfers between banks..

    First of all it would never work out and your funds will get back to your account after deduction of some fees. So, you need to get right IFSC code..entered in Paypal

    You can check the IFS Code on banklocations.in if not on rbi.org.in or you may even check the same on the Cheque slip

    Swift code and IFSC code both are different thing.

    You can find IFSC code of your bank printed at all leaves of check book. Check it.

    DON.

    SWIFT Codes and IFSC Codes are different and serves same purpose. IFSC code is used to transfer funds to any bank in India. Whereas Swift code or BIC code used to transfer funds internationally.
    You can find out your bank branch's SWIFT code and IFSC code at Bankswiftifsccode(dot)com
