FASTags free till February end

to promote electronic toll collection, the Central government decided to offer FASTag for free from February 15. The Ministry of Road Transport and Highways today waived the cost of FASTag of ₹100 for a 15-day period. The new rule will be effective from February 15 to February 29, the ministry said.

"In order to further increase digital collection of user fee via FASTag at NH fee plazas, the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) has decided to waive off the FASTag cost of ₹100 for NHAI FASTag between February 15 and 29, 2020," the government said in a statement.

Vehicle owners can visit any authorised point-of-sale location with a valid Registration Certificate (RC) of the vehicle to purchase the FASTag free of cost. However, the security deposit and minimum balance applicable for the FASTag wallet shall remain unchanged, the government said.
