New Delhi: With the conclusion of Lok Sabha elections in 2024, the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) has announced an average hike of 5 percent in the toll tax across the country, with effect from June 3.
The toll tax in the country is revised annually in line with inflation; however, this year’s annual increase was put on hold due to general elections.
A senior official at the NHAI was quoted by Reuters as saying, “As the election process is over, the revision of user fee rates, which was put on hold during the elections, would become effective from June 3.”
