Paytm FASTag: The National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) removed Paytm from the list of authorised banks that can issue new FASTags. This means that you can no longer buy FASTag using Payem but there are 32 banks that have been approved for FASTag purchases. Current Paytm FASTag users will have to close them and open new ones.

Paytm FASTags will become non-functional after the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) issued an order directing Paytm Payments Bank (PPBL) to cease taking deposits or top-ups in any client wallets, FASTags or accounts. But users can utilise their available balance, request a refund or cashback.
