Making Travel Easy: NHAI’s Advice for Paytm FASTag Users
Imagine cruising down the highway without a worry in the world, knowing you won’t face any hassles at toll plazas. That’s exactly what the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) wants for Paytm FASTag users as all the Paytm FASTag users will not be able to use the digital wallet services due to the crackdown of RBI on Paytm. The Highways Authority has kindly suggested getting a new FASTag from a different bank before March 15, 2024, as this little step can save you from any pesky penalties or extra charges when you’re zipping along the National Highways.

FASTag: Changing the Game
We at Bhaarat Bulletin would like to appreciate FASTag because It’s made our lives so much easier on the road, hasn’t it? With its fancy RFID technology, it’s like magic, letting us pay tolls directly from our linked accounts or through toll owners. With over 8 crore users and almost everyone on board, it’s truly revolutionized how we pay tolls in India.
Feeling the Impact of RBI’s Rules on Paytm FASTag Users
Now, let’s talk about Paytm FASTag users and some changes coming their way. Following the Reserve Bank of India’s (RBI) guidelines about Paytm Payments Bank, topping up your Paytm FASTag balance won’t be an option after March 15, 2024. But don’t fret! You can still use whatever balance you have left to pay tolls even after that date. You can keep using your FASTags for toll payments as long as there’s some balance left. But here’s the catch: After March 15, 2024, you won’t be able to load any more funds onto FASTags issued by Paytm Payments Bank.
