Overview

• IHMCL, promoted by NHAI, signed an agreement with ICICI Bank to implement Multi‑Lane Free Flow tolling at Choryasi Fee Plaza on NH‑48 in Gujarat.
• A separate agreement covers an MLFF deployment at Gharaunda Fee Plaza on NH‑44 in Haryana.
• Choryasi will become the country’s first barrier‑free toll plaza under the MLFF model, according to the road transport ministry.
• The system reads FASTag via RFID and captures vehicle registration numbers with ANPR cameras to collect tolls without stopping, which authorities say will reduce congestion, travel time, and emissions.
• NHAI said the signings took place at its New Delhi headquarters in the presence of Chairman Santosh Kumar Yadav, and the process of selecting additional plazas for rollout is underway.
