This festive season, give your loved ones the gift of seamless travel with the FASTag Annual Pass — a unique offering that promises year-round convenience on India’s National Highways and Expressways. With Diwali around the corner, the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) is encouraging users to think beyond traditional gifts and opt for something truly practical: smooth, stress-free road journeys.
The FASTag Annual Pass, available via the Rajmargyatra app, allows users to prepay for toll charges for up to a year or for 200 toll transactions — whichever comes first — at a one-time cost of ₹3,000. Valid for non-commercial vehicles, the pass covers over 1,150 toll plazas across the country, ensuring travelers can glide through without the usual hassles of top-ups and recharges.
Gifting Made Easy
The gifting process is straightforward. Through the Rajmargyatra app, users simply select the ‘Add Pass’ option, enter the recipient’s vehicle number and contact information, and verify via a one-time password (OTP). Within two hours, the annual pass is activated on the recipient’s existing FASTag account — a quick, efficient process that brings joy and practicality in equal measure.
A Festive Hit with Indian Motorists
Launched on August 15, 2025, the FASTag Annual Pass has already gained massive traction. In just two months, it has surpassed 25 lakh users and facilitated over 5.67 crore transactions — a strong testament to its appeal among Indian drivers.
“The overwhelming adoption of the FASTag Annual Pass reflects a shift in how Indian travelers are prioritizing ease and efficiency on the road,” said an NHAI spokesperson. “This Diwali, we’re excited to see it become not just a utility, but also a thoughtful gift.”
With road travel becoming an increasingly popular mode of transportation, especially during the holiday season, the FASTag Annual Pass emerges as a timely innovation — blending technology, convenience, and festive cheer in one simple solution.
So whether it’s a gift for a frequent traveler in the family or a way to simplify your own road trips, the FASTag Annual Pass offers a smooth ride into the New Year — quite literally.
