NHAI’s One Vehicle One FASTag Initiative

January 17, 2024

Context:

The National Highway Authority of India (NHAI) has undertaken the ‘One Vehicle One FASTag initiative to discourage using single FASTag for multiple vehicles.

About One Vehicle One FASTag:

Aims:
- To enhance the efficiency of the Electronic Toll Collection system and provide seamless movement at the toll plazas.
- To discourage user behavior of using single FASTag for multiple vehicles or linking multiple FASTags to a particular vehicle.

About FASTag:

It is a device that employs Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology for making toll payments directly while the vehicle is in motion.
The FASTag (RFID Tag) is affixed to the vehicle’s windscreen, enabling a customer to make toll payments directly from the Prepaid / Bank account linked to the FASTag.
FASTag offers the convenience of cashless payment and benefits like- fuel and time savings as the customer does not have to stop at the toll plaza.
