Paytm FASTag: Paytm users will also have the option to purchase new FASTags from HDFC Bank on the app, the company said.

Paytm FASTag: Paytm announced that it is enabling FASTag recharges directly through its app after the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) imposed severe restrictions on Paytm Payments Bank Limited (PPBL) over regulatory concerns. This means that users can now recharge their FASTags using Paytm and avoid long queues and delays at toll plazas. Paytm users will also have the option to purchase new FASTags from HDFC Bank on the app, the company said.
