New User Fee Collection Rule to Incentivize Digital Payments at Toll Plazas for Non-FASTag Users

The Ministry of Road Transport & Highways has introduced a new user fee collection rule aimed at encouraging digital payments at toll plazas, especially for non-FASTag users.

Key Highlights of the Rule
- Objective: To incentivize digital transactions and reduce cash handling at toll plazas.
- Target Group: Vehicle owners who do not use FASTag.
- Implementation: Non-FASTag users will now be encouraged to pay tolls digitally through UPI, debit/credit cards, or mobile wallets.
- Fee Structure: A revised fee collection mechanism may include:
- Discounts or incentives for digital payments made by non-FASTag users.
- Higher toll charges for cash payments to discourage manual transactions.

Why This Matters
- Reduces congestion at toll booths by speeding up transactions.
- Promotes transparency and accountability in toll collection.
- Aligns with Digital India goals to boost cashless infrastructure.

This move complements the government’s broader push to make FASTag universal, while still offering digital alternatives for those who haven’t adopted it yet.
