Using Your Paytm FASTag Effectively 
Jump Tag Icon

Your Paytm FASTag is to be affixed to the inner side of your vehicle's windshield, preferably in the top-middle section. This placement enables RFID scanners to read optimally at toll plazas. 

Maintaining an adequate balance in your FASTag account is important to prevent commuting hurdles. Insufficient balances might also force you to resort to cash payments or even result in a penalty (which is 2 times the actual amount). Therefore, regularly checking and recharging your Paytm FASTag account should become a part of your travel preparation.
