FASTag Balance: Check Different Ways To Check FASTag Balance Here

FASTag is an electronic toll collection system in India that employs Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology for making toll payments directly from the prepaid account linked to it. FASTag is affixed on the windscreen of your vehicle and enables you to drive through toll plazas, without stopping for cash transactions. You need to recharge/top up the tag as per your requirement. Recently, the government has issued an important update on FASTag KYC update.

For customers whose KYC documents are received, the FASTag Account recharge limit is Rs 1,00,000. For non-KYC customers, the recharge limit is Rs 10,000 only.
