Quick Summary

Section 269SS of the Income Tax Act does indeed apply to chit fund subscriptions, including advance payments. Even if payments are made in cash and aren't strictly loans or deposits, they are considered advance subscriptions and fall under the Act's purview. This also impacts how lump sums can be paid back to winners, especially if the chit is run under an official banner.
