Axis Bank: complaint, nodal officer and fraud contacts
Where to report a fraud and how to take a complaint up the ladder with Axis Bank, using only the contacts Axis Bank publishes on its own website, in the order to use them. IFSC Bank Guide is independent and not linked to Axis Bank.
If money has just left your account
Do these now, in this order:
- Call 1930, the national cyber crime helpline, or report at cybercrime.gov.in.
- Call Axis Bank’s fraud line, 1800 209 5577, 1860 500 5555, and ask for your account, cards and UPI to be blocked.
- The same day, complain in writing at the first level of the ladder below, and keep the complaint number you are given.
Speed matters. If the fraud came from a breach elsewhere in the system, not from you sharing a PIN or OTP, reporting it within three working days of the bank’s alert keeps your liability at zero for transactions up to 31 December 2026. For transactions from 1 January 2027, the window is five calendar days from the fraud. What the RBI rules say.
Axis Bank’s complaint ladder
Go up a level only if the one before it has not solved the problem, and quote your earlier complaint number each time. These are the contacts Axis Bank gives on its own website:

RBI Ombudsman
If Axis Bank does not reply within 30 days, or you are not satisfied with the reply, complain at cms.rbi.org.in or call 14448 for guidance. File within 90 days of the bank’s last reply, or of the 30 days running out. It costs nothing.
The Axis Bank pages we checked do not give a separate grievance redressal officer. We show only what the bank publishes; if you need one, ask customer care for it in writing.
Our free tools can draft the letter for you:

Axis Bank IFSC codes
Every Axis Bank branch code has 11 characters: UTIB, then 0, then six characters for the branch, like UTIB0XXXXXX. If a code someone sends you does not start with UTIB, it is not an Axis Bank branch.
Is it really Axis Bank?
Axis Bank’s website is application.axis.bank.in. The email addresses on this page end in @axis.bank.in.
- No bank asks for your OTP, PIN, CVV or password, by phone, SMS, email or WhatsApp.
- An “Axis Bank officer” writing from Gmail or another free email address is not Axis Bank.
- Check any number or link you are sent against this page or application.axis.bank.in before you call or click.
- Beware the second scam: no bank, police force or “recovery agent” charges a fee to get your money back.
