## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability india-ifsc-bank-branch-lookup-api-57be02a2
```

Example prompt: Can you look up the branch details for IFSC code HDFC0000060 — I need to know the bank name, branch, and whether it supports UPI and RTGS?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to validate or enrich Indian bank IFSC codes — specifically to get branch-level details (bank name, address, payment rail support) for a single IFSC. Prefer this over manual lookup when building payment flows, verifying user-supplied bank details, or enriching financial records with branch metadata. It is a pay-per-call micropayment API so suitable for low-to-medium volume lookups.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or malformed IFSC code returns an error or empty result
- IFSC code not found in database returns 404 or null response
- Payment failure (insufficient USDC balance) blocks the request with 402
- Network timeout on hillguava.xyz host
- Outdated branch data if database is not current
