Mumbai, June 26: Several media reports have claimed that from July 15, two-wheelers will no longer be exempt from toll tax at highway entry points and will be brought under the digital toll collection system. According to the reports, the government was preparing to include two-wheelers under the toll regime to ensure that all road users contribute to highway maintenance. The move was also linked to ongoing efforts to digitise toll collection through FASTag. Currently, toll tax is applicable only to four-wheelers and larger vehicles. The Ministry of Road Transport and Highways had, in fact, announced a new FASTag Annual Pass for private four-wheelers last week, priced at INR 3,000, effective from August 15. According to a report by India Today, preparations are underway to bring two-wheelers under the ambit of the toll regime. Is TRAI Calling Users to Suspend Their Mobile Numbers Over Illegal Activity?

Gadkari also appealed to media outlets to refrain from spreading unverified information, underlining that such reports lead to unnecessary public confusion. Currently, two-wheelers remain exempt from toll charges on national highways, and this policy has not changed. However, it is important to note that two-wheelers are not allowed on access-controlled highways and expressways, where their entry is prohibited by law.
