FASTag FAQ’s


 What is NETC FASTag?

NETC FASTag is a device that employs Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology for making toll payments
directly from the prepaid account linked to it. It is fixed on the windscreen of your vehicle, which enables you to drive
through any toll plaza - so you don’t have to stop for any cash transactions.

The tag has a validity of 5 years and after purchasing it you only need to recharge/reload i.e. top-up the tag as per
your requirement. Kindly ensure minimum balance at all times. To know minimum balance, please click on the

    No, there is no interest given on any balance/security deposit in the wallet.

    The security deposit you pay will be applicable for each tag and won’t be a part of your wallet balance.

    You can only do a recharge electronically to increase the wallet balance.

    Vehicles are categorized based on the size and load they carry, damage done to the road, and on the type of use (commercial/personal) of a vehicle. The FASTag rates are decided based on this categorization.

    In India, tolling is generally under the open system, whereby fee payable is a fixed amount based on the length of road, which is normally 60 kms. Hence, even if a stretch is of lesser length, user fee of the actual length itself is collected.

    The user fee on every plaza is based on various factors -stretch length under that plaza, structures (bridge, tunnel, bypass) and width of the highways, applicable fee rules and provisions of the concessions agreement. Based on these factors, every toll plaza’s user fee is decided accordingly.

    You will need to submit your documents to the concessionaire validating your residence within 10km of a particular plaza. Once it is verified, you may avail the concession on the NETC FASTag assigned to your vehicle.

    Concession to local/frequent users are extended as welfare measures. There may be variation in the concessions available as these are provided at different times under different fee rules and based on the provisions of the concession agreement.

    A statement can be generated for a wallet regardless of the number of tags under a wallet.

    There is no need to register each FASTag separately. Any TAG issued and activated is linked to your wallet and will reflect under your login ID.

    FASTag can be used on all National and State toll plazas where NETC has been implemented. FASTag can also be
    used locally in Mumbai. To check the list of Plazas, https://v.hdfcbank.com/content/dam/hdfc-aem-microsites/htdocs/common/pdf/Plaza-List-as-of-Dec-2022.pdf

    Yes, you will have to use the lanes demarcated for FASTag.

    In all probability you may not have to submit the KYC documents, however it is best to check with your Relationship Manager for confirmation.

    In case of such a scenario, a complaint is to be lodged with respective Project Directors at the toll plaza.
