![]() But yes, it defeats the whole purpose of having a fastag and gests frustrating when the tag doesn't get read and you have to do a forward and backward dance till the toll booth attendent decides it is worty enough task to bring out the handheld scanner. The ICICI tag I got from the showroom with my new car had this issue. Only 1% of the time it used to get read by the overhead scanner. 90% of the time, the handheld scanner would work, but like you said, toll dedudction was not consistant. Got a replacement tag (from ICICI itself) which solved the issue. Quote:

The side doesn't matter for RFID. I have stuck my tag using cello tape without removing the opaque baking, with the opaque side inside. |

I doubt multiple RFIDs confuse FASTag scanners. I have three RFIDs on my windshield - FASTag (top left), manufacturer RFID (centre) and my office RFID (top right). Overhead scanners always take some time to read the FASTag and sometimes fail to read, but I have seen instant response on handheld scanners probably because of a targeted scan. |

| ![]() For the first time, the toll collection through FASTag crossed Rs 80 crores per day on December 24, 2020, with a record of 50 lakh FASTag transactions per day. With more than 2.20 crore FASTag issued till date, adoption of FASTag by highway users has seen unprecedented growth. Quote:

| ![]() NHAI said it has updated the FASTag app to add a new feature to provide balance status to users. With FASTag becoming mandatory on toll plazas from 1st January 2021 and to ensure its smooth implementation, NHAI has updated its Mobile App My FASTag App with a new feature to Check Balance Status by simply entering the vehicle number, NHAI said in a statement.

| ![]() I have a PayTm Fastag which worked very well, but I have not hit the highway since March. Can I continue with the same one from Jan 1st or any tweaking/extra feature is required? |

Those who don't have it are being pushed to shift to pay through Fastag instead of paying cash. Quote:
However the ICICI Bank Fastag under business in GPay never worked for me. Always says this option is currently unavailable. I had to directly make payments using UPI id of my tag. That works perfectly fine for me whichever app i use. Last edited by nick.cs : 29th December 2020 at 07:52. | ||

From their FAQs below: Kindly ensure the following: You have an active tag - you can check it under the "Manage Tags" section in your FASTag sub-wallet. You have a sufficient amount (at least 150 for Car/Jeep/Van) in your Paytm/FASTag wallet. Last edited by Chetan_Rao : 29th December 2020 at 10:55. Reason: Typo | |
