Jio Payments Bank Secures Tolling Deal to Boost Digital Finance
  • Jio Payments Bank to deploy next-gen tolling tech at two key plazas
  • MLFF system allows vehicles to pay tolls without stopping
  • The move boosts Jio’s role in digital finance and infrastructure

Jio Payments Bank (JPBL), part of Jio Financial Services, has been awarded a contract to implement advanced electronic tolling at two major toll plazas, Shahjahanpur and Manoharpura, on the busy Gurugram-Jaipur highway. This marks a significant step in India’s move towards smoother, faster toll collection.

The bank will roll out the Multi-Lane Free Flow (MLFF) system, powered by Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) technology. This system lets vehicles pay tolls without stopping, using tools like RFID, ANPR, DSRC, and satellite navigation (GNSS) to identify vehicles and process payments seamlessly.

The tolling project is part of a national pilot program run by Indian Highways Management Company Limited (IHMCL), aimed at reducing traffic congestion and making highway travel more efficient. Out of five MLFF tenders issued so far, JPBL has now secured two, reinforcing its growing presence in highway digital payments.

In July 2025, JPBL also began managing FASTag based tolls at 11 other locations across India. With this new win, the bank is expanding its reach in infrastructure linked finance and aims to bring more convenience to commuters.
