India's toll plazas go fully digital from April 10. The Ministry of Road Transport and Highways is discontinuing cash payments to reduce congestion and disputes at toll booths nationwide. Vehicles without FASTag will pay 1.25 times the standard toll via UPI, with penalties for non-compliance including double charges after three days. The government is pushing exempted FASTags and annual passes priced at 3,075 rupees for private vehicles allowing 200 crossings. This modernization effort aims to streamline toll collection through signal-free tolling systems across national highways and expressways, marking a significant shift toward seamless digital infrastructure in India's transportation sector.
