What are the benefits of registering for South India Bank FASTag?

South Indian Bank Fastag

FASTag was introduced with the objective of reducing waiting time at toll plazas. This in turn helps to save a lot of fuel and time for vehicle users.

  • Avoid long queues at the Toll Plaza: When your vehicle approaches the toll plaza, the tag reader installed in the toll gates reads your FASTag and automatically deducts the corresponding toll charges from your tag wallet. This greatly reduces the waiting time in every toll plaza.
  • Forget carrying cash for Toll payments: The toll amount is directly deducted from your wallet account removing the need for carrying cash for toll transactions.
  • Saves time and fuel: FASTags enable you to zip through toll gates without having to wait to make transactions. This saves enormous time and money.
  • SMS alerts for each toll transaction: Users get instant SMS notification for every toll plaza transaction carried out on their tag account. This enables the user to keep a tab on their account balance.
  • Easy recharge options: Easy recharge options: Users can conveniently recharge their tag account online or at any of the POS points at toll plazas. They can use a credit card, debit card, Netbanking or UPI apps to make payments.
  • Online portal for tag holders: South India Bank FASTag users can create an account on the online portal to manage their tag account without any hassles. They can check various things like tag balance, transactions and account information on this online portal.

About South India Bank FASTag

The National Electronic Toll Collection (NETC) system was launched by the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) and the Indian Highways Management Company Ltd (IHMCL) to enable vehicles with a FASTag (RFID) to cruise through the Toll gates. South Indian Bank in association with the National Payments Corporation of India (NPCI) has partnered with the project for the issuance of FASTag for Vehicles.

FASTag uses Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology to provide a contact-less toll collection system at all National Toll Plazas. With an active FASTag affixed on your vehicle’s windscreen, you can cruise through toll plazas without stopping for cash transactions. These FASTags can be pre-loaded with money and used to pay for your vehicle toll payments electronically. When the vehicle passes through the toll gate, the RFID reader at the toll plaza receives information about the vehicle and the toll amount is deducted automatically from the FASTag wallet, thus saving valuable time & money for the users.

FASTag is presently operational at 400+ toll plazas across national highways. The system is interoperable and the same FASTag can be used across all toll plazas under the National Electronic Toll Collection (NETC) program. Planning is underway to include more toll plazas under the ambit of FASTag.

South India Bank, in partnership with NETC, is offering FASTag to all eligible applicants. Users can approach their nearest branch of South India Bank or apply online through the South India Bank NETC Portal.

South Indian Bank FASTag FAQs:

1. How would I cross the toll plaza if the ETC equipment is not working?

In case of NETC equipment are not working, in spite of your FASTag account having sufficient balance, you can pay the toll fee in cash at the plaza and pass.

2. What will happen to my account balance if my FASTag is lost or stolen?

If you find that your FASTag has been lost or stolen, it can be blocked immediately. You have to call and report this to the bank’s customer care number. A new FASTag account will be created by collecting the Tag issuance charges and the remaining balance from the old account will be transferred to this new account.

3. Will I get any concessions given to local vehicles if I reside within 10 Km of a toll plaza?

You can take the FASTag and submit the proof of your stay within 10 Km of your toll plaza. Once verified you will get the concessions.

4. What if I relocate to another city?

FASTag is interoperable and will work on all enabled toll plazas. In case of change in city or address, you can inform the Issuer Agency/Bank.

5. Is there a separate lane for FASTag users?

Yes, FASTag users will always get a separate lane at toll plazas which will be only used by FASTag affixed vehicles.
