New Delhi, Jan 27: As the government has made the FASTag mandatory for all the vehicles in India, a similar RFID (Radio-Frequency Identification) reader has been used at several petrol pumps to save your time.

Mumbai-based AGS Transact Technologies Ltd has developed India's first mobile fuelling solution called Fastlane in June 2019. It is a mobile app that will find out how much petrol or diesel you want to buy. The users can pre-set the amount of fuel they want before reaching the petrol pump. The attendant will then refill your tank and you drive out without waiting to pay the bill.
