It is easy to apply for and get IndusInd FASTag.FASTag is a tag that is fixed on the windscreen of vehicles to enable electronic toll collection. Based on Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) Technology, FASTag was introduced by the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) to digitise toll payments in the country. Made mandatory since February 2021, these tags save people the trouble of having to wait in car queues at toll plazas. FASTag is used at hundreds of toll plazas across India on state and national highways. Here\u2019s everything you need to know about FASTag, including how you can get one.How Does FASTag Work?The FASTag is a prepaid and rechargeable tag. Vehicles which have FASTag on the windshield do not have to stop at toll gates for making a cash payment as the toll fee. Instead, you may keep driving as the toll plaza system scans the tag, automatically processing the applicable toll payment. This is achieved with the help of RFID technology. FASTags are valid for a period of 5 years but must remain readable at the toll plazas.What are the Benefits of FASTag?The most obvious benefits of FASTag are as follows:Avoids traffic snarls and congestion at toll boothsHelps protect the environment by reducing the use of fuel and paperSaves time as you do not have to stop at the toll gatesHelps keep track of all your toll expenses on long road trips with SMS alerts on the registered mobile numberEasy and convenient to recharge online with the help of internet banking, debit or credit cards, or via payment appsFrees you from the hassle of carrying cash and changeGives a chance to earn cashback incentivesHow to Get FASTag?The NHAI has authorised 22 Indian banks to issue FASTags to individuals. These banks, along with NHAI toll plazas, have set up thousands of point-of-sale (PoS) terminals across the country. You can also get FASTag at the bank branch.Looking to apply for FASTag?
