SBI ONLINE portal doesn't load when using IPv6 (On airtel connection) it works on other ISPs. Maybe SBI is blocking Airtel IPv6 ranges
Can anyone confirm this?
 
Oh I've been meaning to post this for sometime. Not just SBI Netbanking. I run into the same issue with SBI Cards website, ICICI Netbanking as well.
 
Just switch over to v4 and access the site. Many Indian banks block unrecognized mostly foreign IP blocks. It's possible Airtel's v6 range is still not 'whitelisted'. I have also seen banks (HDFC, ICICI Citi as an eg in my experience) blocking some VPNs especially when doing online CC OR netbanking transactions

IPv4 is a tension free experience for now.
 
If they are blocking traffic differently for IPv4 and IPv6, maybe they shouldn't even be running on IPv6. It definitely spoils the browsing experience.
 
I think It might be something else, @WieldyBinkie's ISP uses Airtel for transit and its not working for them. So it might be a network issue on Airtel's end?
