The FASTag is a new innovation introduced as part of the National Electric Toll Collection (NETC) programme in India. The purpose of the FASTag is to make toll plaza collection faster and easier all over the country. It is a passive and reloadable tag that relies on RFID technology and can be attached to the windscreen of your vehicle.
