To get rid of long lines of vehicles at toll plazas for paying toll fees and to save time and fuel, NHAI developed a new system of paying toll tax which is an electronic system and is known as Fastag. Fastag has been started throughout India at all the toll plazas. After the implementation of Fastag, collecting toll tax has become very easy. Now the vehicle owners have no need to stand in long queues which saves time and fuel for the vehicle’s owner.

But most people are still unaware of what is a Fastag or they have very little knowledge about Fastag. As mentioned above Fastag is an electronic way of toll collection through which there is no need to wait for paying toll tax. Toll tax is automatically deducted from your Fastag account when the RFID technology used in Fastag is read by the sensors at the toll plazas.
This Radio Frequency enabled device ie. Fastag is fitted on the windscreen of your vehicle and it was made mandatory by the Ministry of Road Transport and Highway, India on 16 Feb 2021.
Fastag was started to overcome the problems of vehicle owners that they have to face at the toll plazas for paying the toll fees. With the implementation of FASTag, vehicles owners can get rid of standing in long queues for toll payment on highways and avoid the wastage of fuel which saves their money also.
