Do I Need FASTag for Rajasthan? 2026 Update
Yes, for National Highways. A valid and functional FASTag is effectively required in Rajasthan because cash is no longer accepted at National Highway toll plazas. Vehicles without a valid FASTag can pay by UPI at 1.25 times the standard toll, and vehicles that refuse to pay by FASTag or UPI are not allowed to proceed and may receive an e-notice.
Key Benefits: FASTag offers faster passage through Rajasthan's 172 National Highway toll plazas, eliminates the need to carry cash, and avoids the 1.25 times UPI charge. Eligible private vehicles can also use the FASTag Annual Pass for added savings.
2026 Update: FASTag remains the national toll collection system. The government clarified in April 2025 that satellite (GPS) based tolling was not launched on May 1, 2025, and ANPR-FASTag based barrier-free tolling is being introduced only at selected plazas. From April 1, 2026 the FASTag Annual Pass costs ₹3,075 for FY 2026-27.
Rajasthan Toll Costs: Current Rates
Rajasthan has the highest number of National Highway toll plazas in India (172 in FY 2025-26), along with additional State Highway toll plazas, with rates varying by vehicle type, plaza and section length.
Current Toll Rates by Vehicle Class (2026) Netra
| Vehicle Type | FASTag Rate (Single) | FASTag Rate (Return) |
|---|---|---|
| Car/Jeep/Van | Rs 75 | Rs 110 |
| Light Commercial Vehicle | Rs 115 | Rs 175 |
| Bus/Truck (2-Axle) | Rs 245 | Rs 370 |
Rates shown are indicative ranges per plaza. National Highway fees are revised every April 1, and State Highway plaza rates are notified by RSHA (current rate cards effective April 1, 2026). Confirm the exact fee for your plaza and vehicle class before travel.
Major Route Costs (Typical Journey)
- Jaipur to Delhi (NH-48): ₹225-280 for cars via multiple toll plazas
- Jaipur to Udaipur (NH-48): ₹180-220 for cars
- Jaipur to Jodhpur (NH-48/NH-25): ₹160-200 for cars

Local Resident Discounts
Local residents living within 20 km radius of National Highway toll plazas are eligible for a monthly local pass (₹350 for non-commercial vehicles) at eligible plazas, typically offering significant savings for regular commuters. Showing an ID card is no longer enough; eligible residents need an exempted FASTag or a pass obtained through the digital portal.
FASTag Annual Pass: A one-time fee of ₹3,075 (FY 2026-27) gives non-commercial vehicles (car/jeep/van) with a valid FASTag up to 200 toll crossings or one year, whichever comes first, at eligible National Highway and National Expressway plazas. It is bought through the Rajmargyatra app or website and does not apply at State Highway plazas.

- Avoids the 1.25 times UPI charge on National Highways
2. Cash Payment:

- Plan for potential delays during peak travel seasons
