Overview

• National activations topped 4 lakh by August 17, unlocking more than 4.25 lakh toll-free crossings on designated highways and expressways.
• Uttar Pradesh led early adoption with about 30,000 pass activations and over 21,000 crossings, and the Lucknow zone alone logged 18,136 trips compared to 3,106 in Varanasi.
• Priced at ₹3,000 for one year or up to 200 crossings, the pass is tied to existing FASTags and activates via the RajmargYatra or NHAI/MoRTH portals with real-time SMS trip alerts.
• Monthly toll passes for commuters within 20 km of plazas remain valid and do not count against the annual 200-trip limit until their balances run out.
• Reports of phishing and wallet-draining scams have prompted advisories to use only official channels, and annual-pass holders face lower fraud risk by eliminating stored wallet balances.
