The UPI handle to your FASTag is netc.XXXXXXXXX@bank-name.

For example if your FASTag is from Equitas bank and your vehicle number is KA 02 N 1234, then your UPI VPA (Virutal Private Address) or UPI ID or UPI handle would be netc.ka02n1234@equitas. This UPI ID or UPI address is case insensitive. So NETC.KA02n1234@EQUITAS is the same as netc.ka02n1234@equitas
