Bosch MPS and IDFC FIRST Bank's MLFF sets new benchmark in India's digital public infrastructure
  • Over 3.04 million vehicle transactions processed since launch
  • Around 152,129 litres of fuel saved and 395.5 tonnes of CO2 cut

BENGALURU, India, July 22, 2026 -- Demonstrating strong real-world impact, the Multi-Lane Free Flow (MLFF) tolling system on the Mundka-Bakkarwala stretch of Delhi's Urban Extension Road-II (UER-II) has processed more than 3.04 million vehicle transactions since its launch. Enabled by Bosch Mobility Platform and Solutions (MPS) in partnership with IDFC FIRST Bank, this barrier-less model allows vehicles to pass through tolling points without stopping, averaging over 50,000 vehicles per day.

This uninterrupted flow of traffic has contributed to environmental and economic benefits, saving an estimated 152,129 litres of fuel and preventing approximately 395.5 tonnes of CO2 emissions. By replacing conventional stop-and-pay toll collection, MLFF tolling helps improve traffic movement, reduce congestion at tolling points and enhance the overall travel experience for road users.

"Barrier-less tolling is a clear example of digital infrastructure delivering visible benefits," said Sandeep Nelamangala, Joint Managing Director, Bosch Limited and President, Bosch Mobility India. "With MLFF, Bosch brings together sensing, software and systems integration, enabling faster movement, lower fuel wastage, reduced emissions and more efficient highway travel."

As a technology partner, Bosch Mobility Platform and Solutions' integrated solution combines technologies including Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR), RFID/FASTag integration, radar and LiDAR capabilities for automated vehicle identification and real-time toll processing.

The deployment also showcases how technology-led collaborations can accelerate the adoption of India's digital public infrastructure. By reducing physical bottlenecks, the system ensures continuous traffic flow along high-traffic corridors while offering highway operators automated processing and enhanced operational visibility.

As India continues to modernize its road infrastructure, Bosch Mobility Platform and Solutions remains focused on developing and deploying solutions that drive operational efficiency and build a more connected, sustainable transportation ecosystem.

The saving is calculated based on the estimated save of around 0.05 Liters of fuel per vehicle.
