Dear Lottery Prize Structure
The same prize structure applies to all three daily Dear draws (1 PM Nagaland, 6 PM Sikkim, 8 PM Nagaland). Ticket price: Rs 7. Some players call the 1st prize the Dear Jackpot — it is Rs 1 Crore.
Prize table
| Prize | Amount | Winners | How to win |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1st Prize | Rs 1 Crore | 1 | Series + letter + all 5 digits |
| Consolation Prize | Rs 1,000 | Same 5 digits, other series | Same 5 digits as 1st prize, any other series |
| 2nd Prize | Rs 10,000 | 10 numbers drawn | Exact 5-digit number |
| 3rd Prize | Rs 500 | 10 numbers drawn | Last 4 digits |
| 4th Prize | Rs 250 | 10 numbers drawn | Last 4 digits |
| 5th Prize | Rs 120 | 100 numbers drawn | Last 4 digits |
Ticket price: Rs 7. 1st Prize total Rs 1 Crore = Rs 1,00,00,000 to the ticket holder + Rs 5,00,000 to the seller. 2nd Rs 10,000 and 3rd Rs 500 apply to both Nagaland (1 PM, 8 PM) and Sikkim (6 PM) draws — verified on the official result sheets, 10 Nov 2026.
Sources: official result sheets — Directorate of Nagaland State Lotteries and Sikkim State Lotteries, 10 Nov 2026. The 2nd prize (Rs 10,000) and 3rd prize (Rs 500) are the same for Nagaland and Sikkim draws; some other websites show Rs 9,000 / Rs 450 for Sikkim, which the official Sikkim sheet contradicts. Always verify against the official government gazette before claiming.
Words to know — in plain English
Ticket number: two parts. The series (for example 92B) and the 5 digits (for example 90750). Together they make the full number: 92B 90750.
1st Prize (Rs 1 Crore): the biggest prize. You win it by matching the series, the letter and all 5 digits exactly.
Consolation Prize (Rs 1,000): your ticket has the same 5 digits as the 1st-prize number, but in a different series. Example: if the 1st prize is 92B 90750 and your ticket has the same 5 digits 90750 in a different series — say 45C — you win the consolation prize.
Seller's prize (Rs 5,00,000): part of the 1st prize that goes to the shop that sold the winning ticket. The winner gets Rs 1,00,00,000.
Gazette: the official government list of winning numbers. It is the final authority — always check a win against it before claiming.

Tax on winnings — in short
Prize money above Rs 10,000 has 30% tax deducted at source (TDS) before it is paid to you. The final tax on a Rs 1 Crore win is higher than the TDS once cess and surcharge are added — about Rs 34,32,000 in total if your total income for the year is Rs 1 Crore, leaving about Rs 65,68,000.
