Why a FASTag may not read at Vaiguntham
- Low or negative balance: the tag is blocked until it is recharged.
- Tag blacklisted or hotlisted by the bank, most often because KYC is incomplete or the vehicle details don't match the RC.
- Tag damaged, peeling, or not stuck in the centre of the windscreen behind the rear-view mirror.
- More than one FASTag on the vehicle, or a tag moved from another vehicle.
- A lane reader problem at the plaza itself.
What to do at the lane
- Check the tag's status with your vehicle number on our FASTag status check.
- If the balance is low, recharge (see the recharge guide below); it usually reflects within minutes.
- If the tag is blacklisted, call your issuing bank's helpline and ask why; complete KYC if that is the reason.
- If the tag is active with enough balance, ask the toll staff to scan it with the handheld reader.
Vehicles without a working FASTag are charged more than the FASTag rate, so fix the tag before the next plaza.
