FASTag Annual Pass price Starting 15 August, the FASTag Annual Pass offers 200 trips or 1 year of toll-free travel on National Highways and Expressways for just ₹3,000. Nitin Gadkari says it could save you up to ₹7,000 a year—here’s how it works and how to get it.
What Exactly Is the FASTag Annual Pass?
Think of it as a year-long prepaid ticket for your highway tolls.
Once you buy it, you don’t have to keep topping up or paying at every booth. Your trips will be counted automatically through your existing FASTag—up to 200 trips a year on National Highways and Expressways. If you own a car, jeep, or van (non-commercial), this is for you.
How Much Does It Cost and What’s the Benefit?
- Price: ₹3,000 for 200 trips or 12 months (whichever comes first)
- Savings: Road Transport Minister Nitin Gadkari says it can bring your per-trip cost down to just ₹15—versus the usual ₹80–₹100. That’s about ₹7,000 saved over a year.
