Let's discuss how a chit takes place in the current era. The chit commences on a published date by the Foreman or Chit Fund Company, and every subscriber assembles for the auction periodically. If more people get hold of the minimum amount, the lot is regulated, and the person selected as the 'Lucky Subscriber' receives the prize money for the month.
Regardless of the case, there will be an auction discount, which is the difference between the gross sum and the auction amount that is proportionately issued among subscribers or deducted from their monthly premium. For instance, if the lot is fixed at a sum of 60,000, then the auction discount of 40,000 (1,00,000 - 60,000) is divided by the total subscribers after taking a certain amount as a dividend by the Foreman.
The same procedure takes place every month, and every member gets an opportunity to receive the amount.
