Jio Payments Bank Wins Key MLFF Toll Contract
With this development, JPBL has entered the next generation of tolling services for MLFF road projects. The MLFF system, an advanced form of electronic toll collection, enables vehicles to pay tolls seamlessly without slowing down or stopping, removing the need for traditional toll booths.
According to Jio Financial Services, the two toll plazas were part of a tender floated by the Indian Highways Management Company Ltd (IHMCL) under India’s pilot MLFF initiative. Out of five MLFF bids awarded so far, JPBL has secured two, underscoring its growing presence in digital infrastructure and payments.
The company highlighted that this contract marks a major milestone for JPBL, building upon its earlier success in FASTag-based toll processing operations, which began in July 2025. JPBL currently manages toll operations at 11 plazas across various highway stretches as an acquirer bank.
By adding these two MLFF road projects, JPBL has strengthened its position in India’s expanding digital tolling and infrastructure payments landscape.
Vinod Easwaran, Managing Director and CEO of Jio Payments Bank, said, “Our expansion into the tolling ecosystem is a natural progression of our mission to digitise everyday payments and build smart financial infrastructure at scale. By leveraging our group’s digital capabilities, we are preparing to play a key role in India’s evolving mobility ecosystem.”
