The solution to breeze through without stopping in a long line at a toll plaza is called FASTag. Thanks to the National Electronic Toll Collection (NETC) programme, India now has an efficient electronic toll collection system. One of the key players offering this facility is South Indian Bank, providing a seamless way to pay toll charges without any hassle through its FASTag service.
To eliminate the age-old issue of long queues at toll plazas, the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) has launched an electronic toll collection system known as FASTag. FASTag is a simple-to-use, reloadable tag that facilitates the automatic deduction of toll charges. It employs Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology. Driving on highways is now faster and hassle-free with this user-friendly tool. Moreover, FASTag brings transparency to toll transactions and helps save time and fuel.
You can recharge FASTag online by visiting the website or using the mobile app.
