How to verify your ticket
Seven steps from "I think I won" to net winnings in your bank account. Read this before doing anything else with a possibly-winning ticket.
1
Find your ticket number
The 6-digit number sits at the top-left of the printed ticket. The 3-character series prefix in front of it (e.g. 89P) is part of the number and matters for the 1st prize check.
2
Open today's result for the right slot
1 PM, 6 PM, or 8 PM — match the slot printed on your ticket. Wrong-slot tickets cannot win in a different slot's draw.
3
Use the ticket checker below
Type your full number into the slot-machine checker. It cross-checks all 5 prize tiers plus the consolation in under a second. We don't store what you type.
4
Cross-verify against the official PDF
If the checker shows a win, click View PDF in the result card. The Directorate's PDF is the legal record — confirm your number is there before celebrating.
5
Sign the back, then photograph
Signature establishes ownership. Do this before photographing or showing the ticket to anyone. Take clear photos of both sides including the signed back.
6
Gather your claim documents
You'll need attested copies of PAN and Aadhaar, an address proof, and a cancelled cheque from your bank. The Directorate uses these to verify identity and credit the net winnings directly.
7
Submit within 30 days
Carry the signed ticket — or send by registered/speed post — to the Directorate of State Lotteries, Kohima 797001, Nagaland. Tickets older than 30 days from the draw date are void. For prizes above ₹10 lakh, in-person submission in Kohima is strongly recommended over post. Net winnings reach your bank in 2 to 4 weeks.

🎯 What is Lottery Sambad?
Lottery Sambad is the daily state lottery operated by the Directorate of State Lotteries, Government of Nagaland. Three live draws happen every single day of the week — 1 PM (Day), 6 PM (Evening), and 8 PM (Night) — at the Directorate's office in Kohima, Nagaland. The result is published as an official PDF 6 to 8 minutes after each draw closes.
Each ticket costs ₹6 and carries a 6-digit number with a 3-character series prefix (for example, 89P 67890). Every draw distributes over ₹1.14 crore across five prize tiers plus a consolation tier — the 1st prize alone is ₹1 crore, the largest single-ticket cash payout of any Indian daily state lottery.
Tickets are sold by authorised retailers in 13 Indian states where state-run lotteries are legal: Nagaland, Sikkim, Kerala, West Bengal, Punjab, Maharashtra, Madhya Pradesh, Goa, Meghalaya, Assam, Arunachal Pradesh, Manipur, and Mizoram. Online ticket sale is illegal anywhere in India under the Lotteries (Regulation) Act, 1998 — any website claiming to sell Lottery Sambad tickets online is breaking the law.
📅 Daily brand names — Monday to Sunday
The Lottery Sambad brand name rotates through the week. Each slot has its own name on each day — so the 1 PM Wednesday draw has a different brand than the 6 PM Wednesday draw.
| Day | 1 PM (Day) | 6 PM (Evening) | 8 PM (Night) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Monday | Dear Dwarka Morning | Dear Mahanadi Evening | Dear Pearl Monday Night |
| Tuesday | Dear Yamuna Morning | Dear Indus Evening | Dear Hill Tuesday Night |
| Wednesday | Dear Spark Wednesday | Dear Regal Wednesday | Dear Dream Wednesday Night |
| Thursday | Dear Godavari Morning | Dear Cupid Evening | Dear Stork Thursday Night |
| Friday | Dear Narmada Morning | Dear Ostrich Evening | Dear Vulture Friday Night |
| Saturday | Dear Brahmaputra Morning | Dear Sandalwood Evening | Dear Parrot Saturday Night |
| Sunday | Dear Teesta Morning | Dear Donegal Evening | Dear Toucan Sunday Night |
All 21 brand names are official sub-brands of the Nagaland State Lottery. The brand printed on your ticket must match the slot you're checking — a "Dear Pearl Monday Night" ticket cannot win in the Wednesday Evening draw.

❓ Lottery Sambad — questions readers ask
What time is today's Lottery Sambad result published?
Three draws every day of the week: 1 PM (Day), 6 PM (Evening), and 8 PM (Night), all IST. The Directorate of State Lotteries, Nagaland releases the official PDF 6 to 8 minutes after each draw closes. We mirror that PDF on this page within 60 seconds of publication, so the result you see above is live as soon as the Directorate posts it.
How much do I get after tax on a ₹1 crore Lottery Sambad win?
The Directorate deducts ₹35,88,000 at source under Section 194B of the Income Tax Act, 1961. Net deposit to your bank account: ₹64,12,000. That 31.2% deduction is the combined effect of 30% income tax + 15% surcharge + 4% health & education cess. No further tax is owed at ITR filing time — the TDS is full and final.
How do I claim a Lottery Sambad prize?
Sign the back of the winning ticket immediately. Gather attested PAN, attested Aadhaar, address proof, and a cancelled cheque from your bank. Send the original signed ticket by registered or speed post to the Directorate of State Lotteries, Kohima 797001, Nagaland within 30 days of the draw date. For prizes above ₹10 lakh, fly to Dimapur and submit in person at Kohima — it's safer and faster than post. Net winnings reach your bank in 2 to 4 weeks. Full 7-step guide →
How much does a Lottery Sambad ticket cost?
The maximum retail price (MRP) of a Lottery Sambad ticket is ₹6, set by the Directorate of State Lotteries, Nagaland and printed on every ticket. Retailers selling above MRP are in violation of the Lotteries (Regulation) Rules, 2010 and should be reported to the Directorate at 0370-2222900.
Can I buy a Lottery Sambad ticket online?
No. Online sale of Indian state-lottery tickets is illegal anywhere in India under the Lotteries (Regulation) Act, 1998. Tickets are sold only by authorised retailers — newsstands, lottery kiosks, and licensed agents — in the 13 states where state lotteries are legal. Any website or app offering to sell you Lottery Sambad tickets online is breaking the law and is most likely a scam.
What is the Lottery Sambad prize structure?
Six prize categories per draw: 1st (₹1 crore × 1 winner) + Consolation (₹1,000 × 99 winners) + 2nd (₹9,000 × 10) + 3rd (₹450 × 10) + 4th (₹250 × 10) + 5th (₹120 × 10,000). Total payout per draw is approximately ₹1.14 crore. The match rules differ by tier — 1st prize needs an exact 3-char + 6-digit match, 5th prize matches just the last 4 digits. Full prize structure →
How do I check if my ticket won?
Use the slot-machine ticket checker above — type your full ticket number (e.g. 89P 67890) and tap Spin & Check. It cross-checks all 5 prize tiers plus the consolation in under a second. We don't store what you type. After a positive match, always cross-verify against the official PDF embedded above — the Directorate's PDF is the only legal record of any result.
Where can I see yesterday's Lottery Sambad result?
The full archive of every past draw is at /archive, organised by year and month. You can also jump directly to a specific date via yesterday's results page. Every historical draw shows the same data we publish for today — full PDF, all 5 prize tiers, consolation series, and the ticket checker.
What is the biggest prize a Lottery Sambad ticket can win?
The standard daily 1st prize is ₹1 crore. Special weekly and festival "Bumper" draws (e.g. Lohri Bumper, Diwali Bumper) carry higher 1st prizes — typically ₹2.5 crore to ₹8 crore — but they follow the same 5-tier structure. The Kerala State Lottery's Pournami Bumper has touched ₹12 crore. Check the specific bumper's official PDF for the prize amount on each draw.
Is Lottery Sambad Daily an official Nagaland government site?
No. This is an independent results mirror. We are not affiliated with the Directorate of State Lotteries, Nagaland, or any state government. We publish the official PDF as a public-interest mirror within 60 seconds of its release. The Directorate's PDF (and only the Directorate's PDF) is the legal record of any result — if you ever see a discrepancy, the official PDF governs. More on our editorial standards →
