Since the introduction of FASTag, it has become essential for vehicle owners to have it installed. Whether you own a car or a truck, having a FASTag on your four-wheeler is mandatory to pass through toll plazas on Indian National Highways. Failure to have a FASTag will result in paying double the toll tax amount at each toll booth during interstate travel.
It is important to note that simply purchasing and affixing a FASTag is not enough. You also need to know how to activate and recharge it. Paytm offers a versatile FASTag that can be used for various services, including fuel station payments, online shopping, bill payments, and more. Additionally, Paytm allows users to recharge their FASTag issued by Axis Bank in just a few simple steps.
