All state lottery results in India do not follow one national timetable: each state department publishes its own schemes, dates and draw times. This guide puts the currently verifiable schedules in Indian Standard Time (IST), separates fixed slots from scheme-specific timings, and shows how to confirm a result with the relevant state source.
What you need before checking a result
Keep these four details together before opening a result page:
- State or department: Nagaland, Sikkim, Kerala, Punjab, Maharashtra or Goa, for example.
- Scheme or draw name: a state can publish several lotteries on the same day.
- Draw date: use the date printed on your ticket or in the official notice, not only “today”.
- Time and time zone: all times below are IST unless an official notice says otherwise.
The ticket, result page and official result sheet should agree on the state, scheme, date and draw number. A similar-looking number from another state or another time slot is not a match.
Step 1: Match the state and scheme
Why this matters: “all state lottery results” is a search phrase, not the name of one government draw. A result from Nagaland cannot be checked against a Sikkim scheme simply because both use the Dear name.
Start with the state printed on the ticket. Then read the full scheme name. If the ticket says Dear 6 PM, look at Sikkim’s Dear 6:00 PM set; if it says Dear 1 PM or Dear 8 PM, check the matching Nagaland slot. For a Kerala, Punjab, Maharashtra or Goa ticket, use the scheme name and date because those departments publish multiple weekly, monthly or bumper draws.
For a quick current result check, open the Lottery Sambad home page and choose the matching state or time-slot page. The site is an independent information publisher, so the state department’s result sheet remains the final reference for a claim.
Step 2: Use the timetable by clock
Why this matters: ordering the checks by time prevents you from confusing a 4 PM Sikkim result with a 6 PM Dear result or assuming every state uses the familiar 1 PM, 6 PM and 8 PM pattern.
| Time or window (IST) | State | Scheme or draw | What to confirm |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1:00 PM | Nagaland | Dear 1 PM | Use the date and the 1 PM scheme name on the official result publication. |
| 2:30–5:30 PM official window | Kerala | Weekly state lottery | The Kerala rules specify this draw window; use the current LOTIS result entry for the exact scheme and date. |
| 4:00 PM | Sikkim | Labhlaxmi Bliss weekly | The Sikkim schemes page lists Labhlaxmi Bliss from 4:00 PM onwards. |
| 5:40 PM | Goa | Rajshree 10 Evening weekly listings | Confirm the exact scheme and date on the Goa State Lotteries result page. |
| 6:00 PM | Sikkim | Dear weekly | The Sikkim schemes page lists the Dear weekly set from 6:00 PM onwards. |
| 7:30 PM | Goa | Rajshree 50 weekly listings | Check the official Goa result entry because the scheme and weekday are part of the identification. |
| 8:00 PM | Nagaland | Dear 8 PM | Match the date, 8 PM slot and full draw name. |
| 9:00 PM | Goa | Rajshree Night weekly listings | Verify the scheme-specific official result before relying on a number. |
| Scheme notice | Punjab | Weekly, monthly and bumper schemes | Punjab timings are fixed by the lottery director for each scheme; do not use one permanent time for every Punjab draw. |
| Scheme notice | Maharashtra | Weekly, monthly and bumper schemes | The official schedule confirms the draw programmes, but the applicable scheme notice controls the date and time. |
The official Nagaland State Lotteries live-draw page lists Dear 1 PM and Dear 8 PM among its draw categories. The Sikkim State Lotteries schemes page separately lists the 4 PM Labhlaxmi Bliss and 6 PM Dear weekly sets. These are useful anchors for readers who search “1 baje”, “4 PM” or “6 baje ka result”.
The 21 regular Dear weekly names
The weekday name is a second check, not a replacement for the date and official sheet. The regular Dear timetable used by this site follows this 1 PM / 6 PM / 8 PM order:
| Day | 1 PM draw | 6 PM draw | 8 PM draw |
|---|---|---|---|
| Monday | RISE | LEGEND | CLOVER |
| Tuesday | SHINE | PRESTIGE | DESTINY |
| Wednesday | SPARK | REGAL | DREAM |
| Thursday | STAR | SUPREME | FAME |
| Friday | VICTORY | CROWN | HORIZON |
| Saturday | VISION | ELITE | LUCKY |
| Sunday | WISH | EMPIRE | MAGIC |
Each is a “Dear … Weekly Lottery” name. For example, a Monday 6 PM result should be checked as the Dear Legend Monday draw, while a Sunday 8 PM result should be checked as Dear Magic Sunday. If the draw name, date or slot does not agree, stop and verify before reading the number.
Step 3: Check Nagaland and Sikkim Dear draws
Why this matters: the familiar Lottery Sambad result searches usually refer to these two state-lottery schedules, but the state sources are separate.
For Nagaland, use the 1 PM Lottery Sambad result page or the 8 PM result page. Confirm the page date, weekday, slot and full Dear draw name. Nagaland’s department site identifies itself as part of the Government of Nagaland Finance Department and provides its own live-draw and result sections.
For Sikkim, use the Sikkim State Lotteries results page for the 4 PM Labhlaxmi or 6 PM Dear listing. The site’s result page separates “LABHLAXMI WEEKLY 4:00 PM” from “DEAR 6:00 PM WEEKLY”, so do not merge those into one result.
If you are following the complete Dear weekly pattern, the Lottery Sambad draw schedule gives the weekday view. The Dear lottery result time guide explains the 1 PM, 6 PM and 8 PM reader shorthand in more detail.
Step 4: Check Kerala, Punjab, Maharashtra and Goa
Why this matters: these states do not all use the same three daily Dear slots, and special draws can have their own published date and time.
Kerala
The Kerala State Lotteries official result portal is the LOTIS system of the Department of State Lotteries. It lists the weekday schemes, draw dates and downloadable result documents. The department’s lottery rules state that a draw is conducted between 2:30 PM and 5:30 PM, so use the current result entry or notice for the exact time of a particular scheme.
Do not treat a Kerala bumper as an ordinary weekly draw. The official Kerala site publishes special notices and can reschedule a draw, so check the named bumper document and date.
Punjab
Punjab has weekly, monthly and bumper schemes, and the applicable timing can be printed in the scheme notice or result notification. The Punjab government Finance Department page identifies Punjab State Lotteries and its Director Lotteries. Use the Punjab State Lotteries portal when checking a current department notice.
Avoid copying a fixed “Punjab result time” from a general timetable. The same state can have different weekly and monthly schemes, while bumper dates are announced separately.
Maharashtra
The Maharashtra State Lottery schedule says the state conducts draws on weekdays except three national holidays and publishes weekly, monthly and yearly bumper programmes. Its schedule page also links the detailed weekly table. For a result, open the official scheme/date search and match the Marathi or English scheme name, draw date and draw number.
The Maharashtra schedule is therefore best treated as a programme calendar, not one daily time for every draw. A weekly draw, monthly draw and bumper may have different instructions.
Goa
The Goa State Lotteries result page publishes official gazette results with the lottery name, date, draw number and draw time. Its published Rajshree weekly listings show 5:40 PM for Rajshree 10 Evening, 7:30 PM for Rajshree 50 and 9:00 PM for Rajshree Night.
Those times identify the listed schemes, but the scheme name and date still matter. Goa’s rules allow timings to be altered in exceptional circumstances, so read the latest official notice on a holiday or special-draw date.
Step 5: Open the matching result page
Why this matters: a current slot page can show the latest available result, while an older ticket needs its exact date.
Use this sequence:
- Select the state and scheme.
- Select the draw date, including the year.
- Match the scheduled time and weekday.
- Read the full result table, including any series letters and the complete ticket number.
- Save or open the official state result document for a final comparison.
Success means every identifier agrees: state, scheme, date, draw number, time, series and ticket number. If one item differs, do not treat the result as confirmed.
For an older Lottery Sambad date, use the date-wise old results page rather than relying on the latest page. Our archive starts on 7 January 2026, and date coverage can vary, so the official state publication is especially important for older claims.
Official sites to check
Use these links when you need the source behind a result or timetable:
| State | Official source | Use it for |
|---|---|---|
| Nagaland | Nagaland State Lotteries | Live draws, result notices and claim information |
| Sikkim | Sikkim State Lotteries | 4 PM Labhlaxmi and 6 PM Dear results |
| Kerala | Kerala LOTIS results | Date-wise result documents and scheme names |
| Punjab | Punjab State Lotteries | Current notices, schemes and result instructions |
| Maharashtra | Maharashtra State Lottery | Schedule, scheme search and result pages |
| Goa | Goa State Lotteries | Gazette results and published draw times |
An official-looking page is not enough by itself. Check the department name, the exact draw date and the scheme details. Do not rely on a forwarded image, a social-media post or a message that asks for money to release a prize.
Common mistakes when checking all state lottery results
- Using the wrong state: Dear is used across multiple state-lottery schemes, so identify the department first.
- Mixing time slots: 4 PM Labhlaxmi and 6 PM Dear are separate Sikkim results; 1 PM and 8 PM are separate Nagaland slots.
- Reading only part of a number: first-prize entries can include a series as well as digits. Preserve leading zeroes.
- Checking a bumper against a weekly timetable: a bumper has its own notice, draw date and possibly a different time.
- Assuming a holiday is an ordinary draw day: read the department notice because a draw may be postponed or rescheduled.
- Treating an independent page as the final authority: use it for a quick, readable check, then compare with the relevant official state publication.
Check legality and tax before a claim
The Lotteries (Regulation) Act, 1998 sets conditions for state lotteries and allows a state to prohibit the sale of another state’s tickets within its territory. It does not create one simple permission for every place. Check whether lotteries are legal in your state and follow current local rules.
Lottery winnings can also be taxable. The Income Tax Department’s section 194B guidance covers winnings above ₹10,000 during the financial year; its current TDS rate page lists 30%, with applicable surcharge and cess where relevant. Rates and filing treatment can change, so verify the current position and take professional advice for your own circumstances.
FAQ
What time are all state lottery results released in India?
There is no single all-India release time. The regular Dear slots covered here are 1 PM and 8 PM for Nagaland and 6 PM for Sikkim, while Sikkim’s Labhlaxmi is listed at 4 PM; other states use scheme-specific schedules.
Which state lottery result comes at 1 PM?
Nagaland’s official live-draw page lists a Dear 1 PM category. Match the date and weekday draw name, then compare the result with the state publication before treating a ticket as a possible match.
Is the 6 PM Dear result from Nagaland or Sikkim?
The 6 PM Dear weekly set is listed by Sikkim State Lotteries. Nagaland’s regular Dear categories listed by its department are 1 PM and 8 PM, so the state and time should be checked together.
How do I check a Kerala lottery result today?
Open the Kerala LOTIS results portal and find the latest entry for the scheme and draw date. Download the result document, then compare the full ticket number and any series details; the Kerala rules place draws within the 2:30 PM to 5:30 PM window.
Can I use one timetable for Punjab, Maharashtra and Goa?
No. Punjab and Maharashtra publish multiple scheme types, and Goa’s Rajshree schemes have different listed times. Use the official state notice or result page for the exact scheme and date rather than copying a fixed time from a general results page.
