DUNI CHAND is described in Puratan Janam Sakhi as a Dhuppar Khatri of Lahore who held in the parganah the revenue rank of karori (lit. the holder of a karor or ten million). He was performing sraddha or anniversary feast for his deceased father when he learnt that the holy saint Guru Nanak had arrived in the city. He invited him to his house which displayed seven flags fastened upon the door top. Asked what these flags signified, Duni Chand proudly explained that they indicated the degree of his opulence, each flag denoting wealth worth a lac or a hundred thousand.
