Tips on How to Recharge FASTag in 3 Different Ways
Posted on Friday, March 8th, 2024 | By IndusInd Bank
Summary: Mandated by the Indian government, FASTag simplifies toll payments, saving precious time and fuel for commuters. To ensure your wallet has sufficient funds for toll payments, recharge your FASTag online and offline with IndusInd Bank in three simple ways. If you do not own a FASTag, apply through IndusInd Bank’s official portal for smooth journeys across India’s highways.
Introduced in 2014, FASTag has revolutionised the collection of toll payments across highways in India. This nifty electronic toll collection system enables drivers to pass swiftly through toll plazas without the hassle of cash transactions. As the vehicle approaches a toll plaza, an electronic reader scans the tag to automatically deduct the applicable amount from the linked wallet. Not only does this accelerate the toll collection process, but it also reduces traffic congestion, and facilitates a seamless travel experience for commuters.
Owing to FASTag’s success over the years, in 2021, the Indian government mandated its use for all four-wheelers, for payments at toll plazas across the country. If you do not have a FASTag affixed to your vehicle, you must pay double the toll amount as a penalty.
After purchasing your tag, you only need to recharge it as per usage.
Three Ways to Recharge FASTag
Your FASTag is linked to a rechargeable prepaid account, which allows for quick digital payments at toll plazas. This easily accessible account stores all the details of toll transactions and balance usage. However, insufficient funds in your account can cause unnecessary hassles and delays at the toll plaza.
