What are the options in a On-the-Spot-Challan?

Spot Challan

If anyone violates a rule a Spot challan will be written and the individual will be asked to pay the fine amount. If the individual does not have money, then either the individual has to surrender his original Certificate of Registration(RC) or Driving License(DL). If the individual does not carry the original RC or DL (or permit in case of transport vehicles), ultimately the vehicle will be detained and challan will be issued with that effect. If the individual wants to pay on the same day, it can be paid at the Police Station and the individual can get the documents or vehicle released. If the individual pays on the next day or after, the individual has to pay at the Traffic Compounding booth and get his RC or DL from the compounding booth and get the vehicle released from the Police Station concerned by showing the paid challan slip issued by the Compounding booth. 

The court comes into picture when the individual approaches for contesting/opposing the case. If court feels that the individual is at fault, he has to pay in the court and if the case comes in the individual's favour, the individual need not pay at all, the court orders the police to give back the documents or vehicle to the individual.
