The FASTag Annual Pass, introduced by NHAI on 15 August 2025, provides a year-long facility for non-commercial vehicle owners to travel seamlessly across national highways without repeated toll recharges. Priced at ₹3,000, the pass remains valid for one year or 200 toll crossings, whichever occurs first. This scheme simplifies highway travel by removing the inconvenience of frequent FASTag top-ups and ensuring zero toll deductions after activation. With nationwide coverage across 1,150 toll plazas and tech-enabled features through the Rajmargyatra App, it enhances convenience, reduces congestion, and supports a smoother, more efficient toll payment ecosystem.
