The facility is aimed at
improving FASTag portability and giving vehicle owners greater flexibility in
choosing their preferred bank. Under the system, users can change the bank
linked to their FASTag while continuing to use the same tag. The initiative is expected to simplify
the process for motorists and reduce the inconvenience associated with
obtaining a new FASTag when changing banks. It could also help improve user
experience across India’s electronic toll collection system. FASTag has become
an important part of India’s highway tolling infrastructure, enabling
electronic toll payments and reducing the need for cash transactions at toll
plazas. The OneTag initiative is
expected to support greater convenience and flexibility for FASTag users as digital
toll collection continues to expand across the country’s road network.
