A blacklisted tag means the tag which has been blocked by the issuer bank and cannot be used to pay toll at a toll plaza. There are various reasons of blacklisting of tag, i.e. Tag is not having sufficient balance in FASTag account. In such cases Customer may call the bank’s call center numbers (toll free) and get the reason of blacklist. To avoid Blacklisting of tag, customer should recharge his / her tag when he/she gets the alert of low balance from his/her bank.

Also, FASTag may get blacklisted in case of any violation such as vehicle – tag class mismatch, non-affixation on the windscreen and carrying in hand, etc.

The physical tag has a validity of 5 years and after purchasing, Customer only need to recharge/ top up the tag as per their usage.

The categorization is primarily based on the size and load they carry and type of use (Commercial/Retail) of a vehicle.
