Toll recharge is now made easy with this option

There are various forms of taxes, and one of the taxes that we pay is known as toll tax. Toll tax is a system of taxation where public and private roads are maintained and constructed with a fee/ toll paid by the citizens who use the roads. This is a road pricing to maintain cost and maintenance of roads, flyovers, highways etc. We pay highway toll to ensure that these roads are regularly maintained, and we get the best of transportation services out of them.

There are new systems by which individuals, who make long journeys by roads, do not have to pay toll taxes daily. These individuals can acquire a toll card. This is a smart card to eliminate the hefty process of paying these taxes daily and via these smart cards, they are automatically paid at regular intervals. There is also a system of toll recharge where you can track your taxes for toll as well.

FASTag 
FASTag is a rechargeable tag or a smart card which helps you to deduct the taxes automatically and lets you avail the toll passes without stopping for a cash payment of the toll. FASTag is linked to your prepaid account which you can recharge at your own convenience and it has a system of Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) which is placed on a vehicle after the FASTag account is active and verified.

FASTag ensures that toll recharge and toll tax payments are made easy. It serves us with the following benefits:

 Hassle-free payments
Now you don’t have to waste your valuable time to stop and pay taxes while you are on the go, the tag card deducts the money automatically from your account and lets you travel hassle-free. Also, you do not have to worry about carrying cash; thus, this mode of system saves a lot of time.

 Convenience
As FASTag is a prepaid account, you can pay and recharge at your own convenience. You can choose to recharge for a flexible amount and not more than what you want.
