How to Extract RTGS/UPI/NEFT Number in Excel Using MID and FIND
If you have a value like the following in your Excel cell:
DRY RTGS/306017054099/MANNATYou can extract the RTGS number (which is 306017054099 in this example) using the following Excel formula:
=MID(C13, FIND("RTGS/", C13) + 5, 12)Explanation of the Formula:
- FIND(“RTGS/”, C13) finds the position where the text
RTGS/starts. In this case, it’s character position5. - + 5 moves the starting point to just after
RTGS/, which is where the 12-digit RTGS number begins. - MID(C13, 10, 12) means: starting from character 10, extract 12 characters.
✅ Final Output:
306017054099Summary Table:
