FASTag Annual Pass Launches Today: Enjoy 200 Toll Crossings at a Reduced Cost
The Ministry of Road Transport & Highways is introducing a FASTag Annual Pass for private vehicles, coinciding with Independence Day, august 15. This new initiative allows users to travel toll-free on designated National Highways and Expressways for a year or up to 200 trips, whichever comes first.
The FASTag Annual Pass, officially launching today, provides a significant benefit for drivers, enabling 200 toll crossings at a fraction of the typical cost. This makes it an excellent option for frequent highway travelers. Here are the key details regarding pricing and validity.
What is the FASTag Annual Pass?
The FASTag Annual Pass grants free passage for private vehicles, including cars, jeeps, and vans, through specific National Highway (NH) and National Expressway (NE) toll plazas. Users can enjoy this benefit for one year or 200 trips, bypassing the normal per-trip fees associated with standard FASTag usage.
Cost of the FASTag Annual Pass
The Annual FASTag Pass is priced at ₹3,000 per year, allowing for up to 200 toll crossings. This pass is particularly advantageous for regular travelers, especially those whose routes involve higher toll costs. For example, if the average toll fee is ₹50, a traveler would typically spend ₹10,000 for 200 crossings. However, with the Annual Pass, they can make the same number of crossings for just ₹3,000, resulting in substantial savings.
Validity of the FASTag Annual Pass
The Annual Pass remains valid for one year from activation or until 200 transactions are completed, whichever occurs first. After reaching either limit, the pass will automatically convert to a regular FASTag. To purchase the annual pass, users must ensure that their FASTag is correctly installed, linked, and active.
