Mirror is wired and active. Every Directorate PDF release is captured within 60 seconds. Click a state to open its homepage with today's draws.
We're expanding scrapers state by state — one new mirror every fortnight. Until each one goes live, use the linked official Directorate source. States with hand-written research pages link to our overview; others link directly to the Directorate.
Thirteen states currently run government lotteries under the Lotteries (Regulation) Act, 1998: Nagaland, Sikkim, Kerala, West Bengal, Punjab, Maharashtra, Madhya Pradesh, Goa, Meghalaya, Assam, Arunachal Pradesh, Manipur, and Mizoram. Every other Indian state bans the sale, distribution, and possession of lottery tickets. Online private lottery apps are universally illegal.
Only if both states have a reciprocal sale agreement. Buying or possessing tickets in a state that bans lotteries (most non-13 states) is a criminal offence regardless of which state issued the ticket. Inter-state online ticket sales operated by private apps are usually illegal and the apps themselves face periodic FIR enforcement.
Kerala's annual Thiruvonam Bumper at ₹25 crore is the largest single-ticket jackpot among Indian state lotteries. Punjab's Lohri Bumper follows at ₹10 crore, then Nagaland's Dear Bumper at ₹6 crore. Daily-draw 1st prizes are smaller — Nagaland and Sikkim both pay ₹1 crore, Kerala daily draws pay ₹70 lakh to ₹1 crore depending on the scheme.
Live states have our scraper wired and mirror official Directorate PDFs within 60 seconds of release. Coming-soon states have research overview pages but no live results yet — we roll out one new state mirror per fortnight. For coming-soon states, the linked official Directorate site is the authoritative source until our mirror goes live.
No. Each state defines its own structure. Nagaland and Sikkim both use a 5-tier structure with ₹1 crore at the top and ₹1,000 at the 5th tier. Kerala's structure varies by scheme — Karunya has 9 tiers, Sthree Sakthi has 7. Punjab uses a 5-tier structure on the Dear 50 daily. West Bengal uses a simpler 3-tier structure for daily draws. Each per-state homepage details its specific scheme.
Every state runs on its own schedule in Indian Standard Time. Nagaland: 1 PM, 6 PM, 8 PM. Sikkim: 4 PM (Labh Laxmi), 6 PM (Dear). Kerala: 3 PM single daily. Punjab: 6 PM daily (Dear 50). Maharashtra: four staggered Saturday draws (4:15 / 4:30 / 4:45 / 5:00 PM). West Bengal: 4 PM. The All India today page shows live timing for each state.
