A significant deadline concerning FASTag is here. Assuming you frequently drive on highways or you want to cross toll gates during your everyday drive it's critical to update your FASTag KYC details within the January 31 deadline.

According to NHAI, the banks have been instructed to deactivate or blacklist all FASTags with incomplete Know Your Customer (KYC) updates after January 31, 2024, even if the balance is adequate for the toll.

FASTag is an electronic toll collection system that monitors moving vehicles and makes it simpler to pay toll taxes at toll plazas. RFID technology is used to attach a tag to the car's windscreen that is linked to a bank account or prepaid card. When a vehicle with a FASTag on it moves toward a tollgate, the scanner checks the tag and deducts the cost from the related card or account.
