Living near a highway toll plaza? New FASTag rule offers annual pass of up to Rs 3,000, but there’s a catch

Attributed summary

Residents living within 20 km of National Highway toll plazas can apply for a Concessional Local Pass. The pass costs Rs 1,500 or Rs 3,000 annually, depending on the plaza's location. To qualify, motorists must have a functional FASTag, and their vehicle must be non-commercial. The scheme aims to reduce toll expenses for eligible residents but has specific restrictions.
