Buying the vehicle in any way in the country means direct tax after tax and after that registration tax takes out the vehicle and comes out on the streets, then toll tax. For the common man, a four -wheeler is not considered as a comfort but luxury in India. But now at least to run on the roads, the new measures are going to be implemented to prevent toll tax, Nitin Gadkari.
Actually, there will be no need to stop the car to give toll on the highway in the country. Union Road Transport Minister Nitin Gadkari has announced that the satellite-based toll collection policy will be implemented across the country in the next 15 days. Its aim is to make the journey smooth and eliminate the jam on toll plaza.
🛰️ How will the satellite-based toll system work?
This new system is based on the Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS), which tracking the real time location of the vehicles. With this technology, trains will get free journey up to 20 kilometers daily in every direction on the highway.
That is, if you use the National Highway or Expressway for daily office or any small journey, then you will not have to pay up to 20 km.
🔁 Pilot Project and Start with Fastag
The government has already started a pilot project of this system on some national highway, which is being tested for its accuracy and effectiveness. This technique will currently work closely with the Fastag system, so that the old system can be gradually removed.
💸 How will the payment be?
Each vehicle will have an on-Board Unit (OBU) or tracking device.
When the vehicle runs on the highway, the obu will track how much distance was covered.
The distance will run on the highway, the toll will be deducted.
This amount will be automatically deducted from digital wallet link to OBU.
