Frequently asked questions

What is the Star Thursday 1st prize result for 20.08.2026?

The 1st prize winning ticket is 37E 54949, paying ₹1,00,00,000 (₹64,12,000 net to bank after 31.2% TDS under Section 194B). The full 5-tier prize table and original Directorate PDF are on this page.

How do I match my ticket against this result?

Use the in-page ticket checker above — type your ticket number and it searches every prize tier including consolation. Manually: for 1st prize match the full ticket including the series prefix (e.g. 37E 54949); for 2nd prize match the full 5-digit number ignoring series; for 3rd, 4th, and 5th prizes match only the last 4 digits.

How much tax do I pay on the ₹1 crore prize?

Section 194B applies a flat 30% TDS on the gross prize. Add 10% surcharge on the TDS (for wins ₹50L–₹1cr) and 4% Health & Education Cess on (TDS + surcharge), giving an effective 31.2% on ₹1 crore = ₹35,88,000 deducted. Net to bank: ₹64,12,000. The Directorate pays the prize as an account-payee cheque after deducting the TDS at source.

How long do I have to claim this Star Thursday prize?

30 days from the draw date — that is, by 19th September 2026 for this result. Sign the back of the ticket, gather your KYC (PAN, Aadhaar, two photos, bank proof for ₹1L+), and submit to the Directorate of State Lotteries in Kohima. After 30 days the prize lapses back to the Directorate. Full claim guide →

Is this result official and accurate?

Yes — every prize number on this page is parsed from the official Directorate of State Lotteries PDF, mirrored byte-for-byte within 60 seconds of release. Cross-check against the original PDF (download link in the winner card above) before celebrating; typos on third-party sites are common, but the Directorate's PDF is the only legal record accepted for claims.

Can I claim this prize if I bought the ticket in another state?

You can claim it only if you bought the ticket legally — that means inside Nagaland, or in a state with a reciprocal sale agreement. Buying or holding Lottery Sambad tickets in a state that bans lotteries (most non-13 states) is a criminal offence under the Lotteries (Regulation) Act, 1998, even if your number matches. The Directorate will refuse claims from illegally-purchased tickets.

Lottery participation is restricted to persons aged 18 and above, only in the 13 Indian states where it is legal.
