The schedule can change through an official notice. If the draw is postponed, the revised date published by the Directorate of Kerala State Lotteries is the one that matters. The Kerala State Lotteries website is the right starting point for the department’s latest notice and result information.
For daily result readers, our Lottery Sambad results home page and draw schedule guide cover a different set of state lottery result pages. They do not replace the Kerala department’s own result publication.
Prize structure and series
BR-112 is reported to use five series: JA, JB, JC, JD and JE. A series is the letter prefix printed before the ticket number. It is part of the winning combination, so checking only the final digits is not enough for the top prize.
The currently reported headline prize is ₹12 crore. Reports also describe lower prize categories, but the amount, number of prizes and matching method should be taken from the final BR-112 prize-structure document or result sheet. Do not copy a prize table from an older Pooja Bumper draw: bumper schemes can change their number of series, prize tiers and lower-prize rules.
Use this simple reading method when the result is released:
- Match the draw name and number: Pooja Bumper, BR-112.
- Match the series letters, such as JA or JB, where the prize category requires a series.
- Match the complete ticket number, keeping every digit in the same order.
- Read the prize category and amount from the department’s result document.
- Confirm the number against the Kerala Government Gazette or the department’s final result before starting a claim.
The result is a record of a completed draw, not a prediction. No number pattern, last-digit method or previous result can tell you what will be drawn next.
Step 1: Save the draw details before 28 November
Why this matters: future-draw pages and social posts can contain copied or changed details. Keeping the draw number and date together helps you identify the correct result sheet later.
Write down or save these details from the latest department notice:
- Pooja Bumper 2026
- BR-112
- 28 November 2026, 2:00 PM IST, if unchanged
- Ticket price and the listed series
- The department’s result or notice page
Success looks like this: you can identify the correct BR-112 notice without relying on a forwarded image, WhatsApp message or an unrelated Pooja Bumper year.
If you already hold a paper ticket, keep it flat and dry. Do not laminate it, cut it, write across the printed number or hand it to an unknown person for “verification”.
Step 2: Check the result from the state source
Why this matters: result images can be cropped, edited or attached to the wrong draw. The state-published result and the Government Gazette are the references to use for a claim.
After 2:00 PM on the scheduled draw date, follow these actions:
- Open the Kerala State Lotteries website directly by typing the address or using a saved bookmark.
- Open the result or lottery-results section and select the bumper result for BR-112.
- Check the publication date, draw name, draw number, series and complete winning numbers.
- Compare the entry with the original ticket in good light. Check every character, including the series letters.
- Save or print the result page for your records, but keep the original ticket as the important document.
Success looks like this: the result you checked identifies BR-112 and agrees with the department’s published record. If a social post or private message disagrees with the department’s record, do not pay anyone or share documents until the difference is resolved through the department.
Step 3: Protect the ticket and prepare the claim
Why this matters: a screenshot is not a prize ticket. The original paper ticket and the claimant’s documents are used to establish the claim and the ticket’s genuineness.
If the complete ticket matches a prize category:
- Sign, write your name and address, and follow the instructions on the reverse of the ticket. Do not alter the printed ticket details.
- Photograph both sides for your private record, without posting the image publicly.
- Keep the original ticket in a safe place and make a clear photocopy if the claim office asks for one.
- Keep identity and payment details ready, including PAN, Aadhaar and bank-account information where required by the claim form.
- Download the department’s Form V for prize claims above ₹10,000 and read the current instructions before submitting anything.
Form V includes the draw name, draw number, ticket number, winner details, PAN, Aadhaar and bank details. The official form also explains that a passport-size photograph and self-attested copies of PAN, Aadhaar and the bank passbook may be needed when the form is not submitted through the specified electronic process.
Success looks like this: the original ticket is safe, the information on the form matches your identity documents, and you know which office or bank route the current BR-112 notice allows.
Step 4: Submit within the 90-day claim window
Why this matters: waiting for a message from a stranger can push a genuine claim past the permitted period. The current Kerala bumper claim instructions state that prize-winning tickets should be surrendered within 90 days from the date of draw.
For BR-112, count the claim period from the final draw date published by the department. The 90-day rule is different from the 30-day figure repeated on some older or copied pages. Confirm the final deadline and the correct submitting authority in the BR-112 prize document before sending the ticket.
The usual claim sequence is:
- Check the ticket against the state result and Gazette record.
- Complete the current form for the prize amount, beginning with Form V where it applies.
- Attach the documents listed by the Directorate, such as identity proof, PAN, bank details, photographs and any bank authorisation required for the route you use.
- Submit the original ticket and claim through the department, an authorised bank route or the office named in the current instructions.
- Keep the acknowledgement, postal receipt or bank receipt until the claim is settled.
The original ticket should be in good condition. Torn, tampered or mutilated tickets can create verification problems. If your ticket is damaged, contact the Directorate or the relevant District Lottery Office using contact details from the official website before taking further action.
Tax and the amount you receive
A prize amount printed in a result is not automatically the amount paid into a bank account. Tax may be deducted at source under the applicable income-tax rules. The Income Tax Department lists lottery winnings under Section 194B and publishes current rates separately.
Do not calculate your final tax, surcharge or return-filing position from a social-media post. Ask a qualified tax professional about your circumstances and confirm the current rule before signing a claim or estimating the amount you will receive.
Fake online Kerala lottery sites and messages
Treat any message saying “you won” before the BR-112 draw and result publication as suspicious. A real result does not require you to pay a registration fee, processing charge, GST, security deposit or “release fee” to a caller or a WhatsApp administrator.
Common warning signs include:
- A website that copies government colours, emblems or the look of a state page but uses a different domain.
- A demand for an OTP, UPI PIN, card number, bank password or remote-access app.
- A request to send Aadhaar, PAN or bank details to a personal number before you have checked the result.
- A claim that a “guaranteed number”, paid prediction or secret method can improve your chance.
- A result image with no draw number, publication date, series or traceable state source.
Do not click an unknown link or reply with documents. Open the Kerala State Lotteries website yourself, compare the draw number and use only the claim route shown there. If money or sensitive information has already been sent, contact your bank immediately and report suspected cyber fraud through the appropriate official channel.
Verify before you claim
Use this short checklist on the draw day and again before submitting a claim:
- Is the document for Pooja Bumper BR-112, not BR-106 or another year?
- Does the draw date and time match the latest department notice?
- Does the full series and number match the original ticket?
- Did you check the result through the state source and Gazette record?
- Is the ticket original, legible and unaltered?
- Are you using the current Form V and the department’s current document list?
- Are you within the 90-day surrender window?
- Have you refused every request for advance money, OTP or UPI PIN?
If one answer is no, pause the claim and re-check the official instructions. Our earlier Dear Puja Bumper 2026 guide may help with general bumper-draw terminology, but it is not a source for BR-112’s final result or claim deadline.
