FASTag won't need to be recharged repeatedly; Government may provide a one-year toll exemption, but you will have to pay this much money

In the new policy, people will get two types of toll payment options. One of these will be an annual toll pass, and the other will be a distance-based toll pass. For its annual toll pass, people will be able to travel unlimited highways throughout the year by paying a lump sum amount of Rs 3000. This will be best for those who often go on long-distance journeys. Distance-based toll will benefit those who rarely go on long journeys. In this, you can travel by paying a flat rate of Rs 50 for every 100 km. This will replace the existing toll plaza-based system, in which different charges have to be paid at each toll booth.

After the introduction of this new scheme of FASTag, people traveling long distances will have to spend less money at the toll booth. There is no need to stop at the toll booth, which will get rid of traffic jams. People will get rid of the hassle of recharging FASTag again and again.

The official date has not been announced by the government yet regarding when this new scheme of FASTag will be implemented, but according to reports, this proposal is in the final stage in May 2025. In view of this, it is expected that it can be implemented all over India soon, which will make it easier to travel on the highway.
