There are multiple ways to check your FASTag account balance with your vehicle number, including online, via mobile application, SMS, and customer care helpline.
The FASTag system, mandated by the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI), was designed to streamline toll tax payments for all vehicles. Upon purchasing a FASTag, car owners receive a small sticker that must be affixed to their vehicle’s windshield. FASTag enables car owners to easily navigate dedicated lanes and automatically pay tolls without stopping at toll booths. In addition to saving time by avoiding lengthy queues, FASTag enables the user to track and monitor all transactions related to toll tax.
