You should add multiple attribute to your file tag:

<form role="form" action="uploadrit.php" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">
        <label class="input" >Choose File Of CSV Format</label>
        <input class="input" type="file" name="file" multiple id="file" class="form-control" required="required">        
        <button class="input" type="submit" name="AddFile" class="btn btn-primary">Submit</button>
</form>

If you need to handle the files via Javascript, you can use File API. Example documentation: http://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Using_files_from_web_applications

Instead sending the files one by one, use the multiple flag and send the files as an array. Here is an example:

<form action="file-upload.php" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data"> <input type="file" name="files[]" multiple> <input type="submit" value="Upload"> </form>

Pay attention to input where I've used the multiple flag as well as have declared the name of the input as an array. In your PHP file, loop through $_FILES['files'] to get all selected files.
