How to read your Dear Lottery result
A Dear Lottery ticket carries a series (for example 65G) and a five-digit number (for example 50053). The 1st prize is announced as the series plus the number together — so 65G 50053 wins ₹1 crore, and every other series ending in 50053 wins the consolation prize of ₹1,000.
Below the 1st prize, the sheet lists ten 2nd prize numbers, ten 3rd prize numbers, ten 4th prize numbers and one hundred 5th prize numbers. Those prizes are paid on the number alone, whatever the series, which is why the same five digits can win in thousands of tickets at once.
- 1st Prize — ₹1 crore (series + number)
- Consolation — ₹1,000 (same number, all other series)
- 2nd Prize — ₹9,000 (ten numbers)
- 3rd Prize — ₹500 (ten numbers)
- 4th Prize — ₹250 (ten numbers)
- 5th Prize — ₹120 (one hundred numbers)
Draw timings and how quickly we update
The three daily draws are held at 1:00 PM, 6:00 PM and 8:00 PM Indian Standard Time. The department publishes the bulletin within a few minutes of each draw, and this page is refreshed as soon as the numbers are available.
If you land here before the draw time and see "result awaited", the draw has genuinely not happened yet — there is no way to know a winning number in advance, and any site claiming otherwise is lying to you.
Nagaland State Lotteries
Nagaland State Lotteries was established in 1972 under the Finance Department and runs the Dear Morning (1 PM) and Dear Evening (8 PM) draws. It prints the largest volume of the three daily sessions — around 7 crore tickets for the evening draw alone.
Nagaland draws carry the ₹1 crore first prize and are the reason "dear lottery result today 1pm" and "8 pm" are among the highest-volume lottery searches in India.
How to verify before you claim
Never trust a single screenshot. Cross-check the winning number on this page against the official bulletin linked on every result card, then match your physical ticket digit by digit.
Claims above ₹10,000 must be submitted to the concerned state lottery office with the original ticket, identity proof and a claim form. Smaller prizes can normally be collected from any authorised retailer in the state.
Claiming a Dear Lottery prize
Prizes up to ₹10,000 are usually paid by licensed retailers against the original ticket. Above that, the claim goes to the state lottery department: you submit the signed original ticket, a photograph, proof of identity and address, a claim form and a bank account details.
Claims must be made within the deadline printed on the ticket — typically 30 to 90 days from the draw date. A ticket that is torn, burnt beyond recognition or missing its serial number will not be honoured, so photograph your ticket the moment you buy it.
TDS is deducted at source on prizes above the statutory threshold, and a 2% seller prize deduction applies from 1 April 2026. Factor that in when you estimate what actually reaches your bank account.
