Kasepalli Toll Plaza is an important toll collection point on National Highway 44 in Anantapur district, Andhra Pradesh. It serves vehicles travelling between Hyderabad, Kurnool, Gooty, Anantapur, Penukonda, Bengaluru and other destinations along the Hyderabad–Bengaluru corridor.
The plaza is located near Kasepalli and Gooty on the Karidikonda–Marur highway section. It handles private cars, interstate buses, tourist vehicles, trucks and substantial long-distance commercial traffic.
Older highway signs and toll records may identify this road as NH 7. Following the renumbering of National Highways, the Hyderabad–Kurnool–Anantapur–Bengaluru corridor is now officially part of NH 44.

A car, jeep or van normally pays ₹130 for one crossing through Kasepalli Toll Plaza.
An eligible outward and return journey costs ₹195 when the vehicle returns through the same plaza within 24 hours using the same FASTag.
The standard monthly car pass costs ₹4,325. It is intended for frequent users and is different from the concessional monthly pass available to qualifying local residents.
Important Tariff Update Note
Most current route databases show ₹130 as the car single-journey charge.
However, one live toll listing refreshed in July 2026 displays the following revised amounts:
- Car single journey: ₹135
- Car return journey: ₹200
- Standard car monthly pass: ₹4,460
- Local commercial car rate: ₹65
Drivers should check the rate and effective date displayed at Kasepalli Toll Plaza before travelling.
The amount shown on the current tariff board and correctly deducted through FASTag should be treated as the final applicable charge.
Single and Return-Journey Charges Explained
The ₹130 car rate applies to one passage through Kasepalli Toll Plaza.
The ₹195 return rate covers one outward crossing and one eligible return crossing. It does not mean that ₹195 is deducted during each passage.
A normal FASTag transaction may appear as:
- First crossing: ₹130
- Eligible return crossing: ₹65
- Total for both crossings: ₹195
The same active FASTag should be used for both journeys.
If the revised ₹135 schedule is operating, the deductions may appear as:
- First crossing: ₹135
- Eligible return crossing: ₹65
- Total for both crossings: ₹200
When a vehicle returns after the permitted 24-hour period, the second passage may be treated as another complete single journey.
Drivers should retain both FASTag transaction messages until the return journey is completed.
Local Commercial Vehicle Rates
Reduced per-crossing rates are listed for eligible commercial vehicles registered within the district where Kasepalli Toll Plaza is located.
| Commercial vehicle category | Local rate |
| Commercial car, jeep or van | ₹65 |
| Light commercial vehicle or minibus | ₹105 |
| Bus or two-axle truck | ₹220 |
| Commercial vehicle with up to three axles | ₹240 |
| Four-to-six-axle vehicle | ₹345 |
| Heavy construction or earth-moving equipment | ₹345 |
| Vehicle with seven or more axles | ₹420 |
An Anantapur district registration number may not activate the concession automatically.
The vehicle owner may be required to provide:
- Vehicle registration certificate
- Valid commercial permit
- Registered business or residential-address proof
- Active FASTag linked to the vehicle
- Proof of regular local operation
- Completed concession application
- Other documents requested by the toll administration
The reduced rate normally becomes active only after the documents are verified and the concession is linked to the vehicle’s FASTag.
Local Resident Monthly Pass
A person living within 20 kilometres of Kasepalli Toll Plaza may apply for a concessional monthly pass for a privately owned, non-commercial car, jeep or van.
The latest listed local monthly-pass amount for 2026–27 is:
₹360 per month
Some earlier FY 2026–27 listings display ₹350. Residents should confirm the current amount through RajmargYatra or the toll office before making payment.
Applicants may be required to provide:
- Vehicle registration certificate
- Aadhaar card or another identity document
- Current residential-address proof
- Active FASTag linked to the vehicle
- Registered mobile number
- Recent photograph
- Completed local-pass application
The toll administration must verify that the residence is within the permitted 20-kilometre radius.
The local pass is linked to one resident, one vehicle and one FASTag. Merely owning a vehicle registered in Anantapur district does not automatically qualify its owner.
Eligible residents may also check whether digital local-pass registration is available for Kasepalli through the RajmargYatra application.

Directions to Kasepalli Toll Plaza
1. From Gooty
Join NH 44 towards Anantapur and Bengaluru.
Continue south on the Bengaluru-bound carriageway. Follow the toll-lane signs while approaching Kasepalli.
The plaza is located close to the Gooty side of the Karidikonda–Marur highway section.
2. From Anantapur
Join NH 44 and travel north towards Pamidi, Gooty, Kurnool and Hyderabad.
Continue on the Hyderabad-bound carriageway. Kasepalli Toll Plaza is reached after travelling through the northern Anantapur corridor.
3. From Kurnool
Travel south on NH 44 towards Dhone-side connections, Gooty and Anantapur.
The journey generally crosses Amakathadu Toll Plaza before reaching Kasepalli Toll Plaza.
Separate deductions at Amakathadu and Kasepalli are normal because the plazas cover different portions of NH 44.
4. From Hyderabad
Travel south on NH 44 through Jadcherla, Kothakota and Kurnool towards Gooty and Anantapur.
A Hyderabad-to-Kasepalli journey crosses several toll plazas. The Kasepalli car charge is therefore only one part of the total route toll.
5. From Bengaluru
Travel north on NH 44 through Devanahalli, Chikkaballapur, Bagepalli, Penukonda and Anantapur.
The complete Bengaluru-to-Kasepalli journey crosses several plazas, including Bagepalli and Marur, depending on the exact starting point and route.
6. From Bellary
Use the appropriate highway connection towards Guntakal or Gooty.
Join NH 44 near Gooty according to the destination. Whether Kasepalli Toll Plaza is crossed depends on the highway entry point and direction of travel.
7. From Tadipatri
Travel towards Gooty or Pamidi using the appropriate connecting road.
Join NH 44 through an authorised junction. Vehicles continuing towards Anantapur may cross Kasepalli depending on the chosen connection.
Kasepalli and Amakathadu Toll Plazas Are Different
Kasepalli and Amakathadu are separate toll plazas on NH 44.
Amakathadu Toll Plaza is located farther north on the Kurnool–Karidikonda section.
Kasepalli Toll Plaza is farther south on the Karidikonda–Marur section near Gooty.
A vehicle travelling between Kurnool and Anantapur normally crosses both plazas.
Separate FASTag deductions at Amakathadu and Kasepalli are therefore not duplicate transactions.
Kasepalli and Marur Toll Plazas Are Different
Marur Toll Plaza is situated farther south on NH 44, closer to the Anantapur–Penukonda side.
Kasepalli is located farther north near Gooty.
A vehicle travelling between Hyderabad and Bengaluru may cross:
- Amakathadu Toll Plaza
- Kasepalli Toll Plaza
- Marur Toll Plaza
- Additional plazas farther south
Each plaza covers a different tollable highway section.
Drivers should compare the plaza name, code, transaction time and amount before reporting a duplicate charge.
Kasepalli’s FASTag plaza code is 352025.
FASTag and Payment Information
FASTag is the standard payment method at Kasepalli Toll Plaza.
Before travelling, ensure that the FASTag:
- Is active and has sufficient balance
- Is properly attached to the windscreen
- Is linked to the correct vehicle registration number
- Shows the correct vehicle category
- Has completed the required verification
- Is not damaged, suspended or blacklisted
Maintain sufficient distance from the vehicle ahead while entering a toll lane. Following a truck or bus too closely may interfere with FASTag scanning.
The transaction message may display Kasepalli, Gooty, Skylark Infra or plaza code 352025.
An incorrect deduction can be reported through:
- FASTag-issuing bank
- RajmargYatra
- National Highway helpline 1033
- Toll control room
Keep the transaction message, vehicle number, travel time and plaza name while filing a complaint.
Barrier-Free Tolling Plan
Kasepalli is among the fee plazas selected for the Multi-Lane Free Flow tolling programme.
The planned system combines:
- Existing FASTag technology
- Automatic Number Plate Recognition cameras
- Artificial-intelligence-based vehicle identification
- Overhead tolling equipment
- Barrier-free vehicle movement
The contract has been awarded, but drivers should not assume that Kasepalli is already operating completely without barriers.
Until the new system officially becomes operational, travellers should follow the lane signs and toll-booth instructions available at the plaza.
FASTag Annual Pass
The National Highway FASTag Annual Pass costs ₹3,075 for the 2026–27 financial year.
It is available for eligible privately registered, non-commercial cars, jeeps and vans.
The pass remains valid for:
- One year from activation; or
- 200 eligible National Highway and National Expressway fee-plaza crossings,
whichever occurs first.
One passage through Kasepalli normally counts as one crossing. Travelling through it and later returning generally counts as two crossings.
Before relying on the Annual Pass, ensure that:
- The vehicle is privately registered
- The vehicle is non-commercial
- Its registered category is car, jeep or van
- The existing FASTag is active
- The tag is linked to the complete vehicle number
- Annual Pass activation has been completed successfully
The pass is activated on the vehicle’s existing FASTag and cannot be transferred to another vehicle.

Traffic and Safety Tips
Kasepalli Toll Plaza may experience increased traffic during:
- Sankranti festival travel
- Dasara and Deepavali journeys
- Friday and Sunday traffic
- Public holidays and long weekends
- Hyderabad–Bengaluru interstate bus movement
- Heavy truck and freight traffic
- Road repairs or diversions

Choose the correct toll lane early and avoid sudden lane changes near the booths.
NH 44 carries fast-moving buses, cars, trucks, trailers and motorcycles. Maintain adequate distance from heavy vehicles, particularly at night.
Reduce speed when approaching a toll queue. Avoid following a bus or truck so closely that the toll scanner cannot separately identify your FASTag.
Do not stop on the active highway or near the toll lanes except during a genuine emergency.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q1. Will a Kurnool-to-Anantapur journey cross Kasepalli Toll Plaza?
Normally, yes. Vehicles following NH 44 through Gooty towards Anantapur generally cross Kasepalli. The journey may also cross Amakathadu Toll Plaza farther north.
Q2. Why do some records show NH 7 instead of NH 44?
The Hyderabad–Bengaluru highway was previously numbered NH 7. It is now part of NH 44, although older signs and toll systems may continue to display NH 7.
Q3. Why did FASTag deduct ₹130 first and ₹65 during the return?
Under the widely listed schedule, the eligible car return rate is ₹195. The system may deduct ₹130 during the first crossing and the remaining ₹65 when the vehicle returns within 24 hours using the same FASTag.
Q4. Why were Kasepalli, Amakathadu and Marur tolls all deducted?
They are separate toll plazas covering different sections of NH 44. A long journey between Hyderabad, Kurnool, Anantapur and Bengaluru may legitimately cross all three.
