Chit Put is a traditional small firecracker from Sivakasi, Tamil Nadu.
Locally it’s also called “சிட் புட் வெடி” (Chit Put Vedi).
The name comes from the sound it makes — a quick “chit” (spark) + “put” (pop/bang).
It’s usually a tiny roll or pellet wrapped in paper that gives a sharp popping sound when thrown or lit.
Category: Mini ground cracker / novelty item.
Effect: Small crackling spark followed by a popping sound.
Size: Very small compared to Lakshmi or Atom bombs.
Use: Popular among children (though still should be handled carefully).
Packaging: Typically sold in bundles/packets of 50 or 100 pcs.
