NHAI Issues Over 5 Lakh FASTag Annual Toll Passes, Collects Rs 150 Crore Revenue

New Delhi: The National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) has sold over 5 lakh FASTag-based annual toll permits in just four days, collecting Rs 150 crore in revenue. Tamil Nadu recorded the highest number of purchases of annual passes in four days, followed by Karnataka and Haryana. Further, Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, and Andhra Pradesh recorded the highest number of transactions through FASTag annual passes at toll plazas, a statement by NHAI said. Private vehicles can now use an annual toll pass for free passage through toll plazas on national highways and expressways, with each pass priced at Rs 3,000. Cars, jeeps, and vans can use this facility at toll plazas run by the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) and the Ministry of Road Transport and Highways. The pass is valid for one year from activation or for 200 toll trips, whichever occurs first. When the limit is reached, the FASTag automatically switches to standard pay-per-trip mode. For point-based toll plazas, each one-way crossing counts as a trip, and a return counts as two. In closed or ticketed systems, a complete entry-to-exit journey counts as one trip. Some FASTags, especially those issued for new vehicles, may only be registered with the vehicle's chassis number. The Annual Pass cannot be activated on such FASTags and they should be updated to include the complete vehicle registration number. The pass is available for purchase via the Rajmarg Yatra mobile app, NHAI or MoRTH websites, or authorised FASTag issuer portals. Payment for the pass (Rs 3,000) can be made via UPI, debit or credit card, or net banking. FASTag wallet balances cannot be used for this purpose. Activation is usually completed within two hours and confirmed by SMS. The average toll for a passenger vehicle is about Rs 50. Completing 200 trips in a year without the pass would cost around Rs 10,000. With the annual pass, the cost is fixed at Rs. 3,000, which saves about Rs. 7,000 for frequent highway travellers.

Pritzker Private Capital Raises $3.4 Billion for Latest Fund

(Bloomberg) -- Pritzker Private Capital, the investment firm started by billionaire Illinois Governor JB Pritzker and his brother, Tony, raised a record $3.4 billion for its fourth fund. The PPC IV fund, which has already made three investments, exceed its initial target of raising $3 billion, according to a statement on on Tuesday. About 17% of the funding came from the firm's members and related entities, with other families and institutional investors from North America, Asia, Europe and Latin America joining in. The new fund adds to a number of capital raises by Chicago investment firms over the past year. Shore Capital Partners, led by billionaire Justin Ishbia, closed on $1.9 billion for three new funds in October and raised another $450 million for a vehicle investing in the food and beverages space. Mesirow Financial Inc. closed on more than $1.2 billion for its fifth real estate fund in May and Madison Dearborn Partners is seeking $3 billion for its newest fund, Bloomberg reported in March. PPC, which invests in middle-market companies in North America, mainly in the manufacturing products and services space, was able to close on new funds even if the overall environment for fundraising has become tougher, in part due to high interest rates. The fourth fund also eclipsed the $2.7 billion brought in by the firm's last closing in 2021. 'We sincerely appreciate the continued support from our returning investors and are excited to welcome new investors to the PPC family,' Chief Executive Officer Tony Pritzker said in the statement. PPC has deployed over $10 billion in total capital to date. The latest fund has invested in three companies already, Chicago-based HeartLand commercial landscaping; Americhem, a chemical manufacturer in Ohio; and Tennessee-based chemical water treatment company Buckman. Much of the Pritzker family wealth was built on the Hyatt hotel brand, founded by Jay Pritzker, who was JB and Tony's uncle. JB is now focused on his political career and has had no involvement with PCC since 2017. More stories like this are available on
