In the carbon tetrachloride molecule, four chlorine atoms are positioned symmetrically as corners in a tetrahedral configuration joined to a central carbon atom by single covalent bonds. Because of this symmetrical geometry, CCl4 is non-polar.

HELLO THERE!
 
Your question is either CHCl3 or CCl4...
 
Well in both, the atoms are bonded with covalent bonds. CHCl3 is chloroform. CCl4 is carbon tetrachloride. 
 
In CCl4, there is covalent bond. The molecule is non-polar, as the geometry is Tetrahedral and the resultant dipole moment is zero.
 
When you start reacting methane with chlorine in presence of diffused sunlight, through free radical mechanism, the above two products are formed in the last two stages.
 
Well, that might be enough, hope you’ve got your answer.
Thanks!
