This will not only save people’s money, but it is also easy to get out of the toll plaza. After the start of this new fastag, the drivers will be able to cross a toll plaza for just Rs 15. This annual pass scheme will be launched from 15 August 2025.

Road Transport Minister Nitin Gadkari had said about the annual fastag and said that you can cross the toll plaza for just 15 rupees. He had told that the price of this fastag pass is 3000 rupees, through which you can take 200 trips. A journey means crossing a trip i.e. a toll plaza. Accordingly, according to the toll towards you, it will cost 15 rupees.

What will be the advantage of this fastag

In general, whatever fastag you use, you have to recharge again and again. On the other hand, if you talk about annual fastag, then it will have to be recharged only once. When its time period is complete, you will have to renew it again. Once given it, people will not need to be in line. This will be implemented across the country from 15 August 2025.
