The safe answer is to use the draw-date record published by Maharashtra State Lottery, because the scheme and prize structure can change between editions; this guide shows how to read it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What the Gajraj draw is<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Maharashtra Gajraj is a monthly draw in the Maharashtra State Lottery programme. It is separate from the daily 1 PM, 6 PM and 8 PM Dear results that many readers check on Lottery Sambad pages. The Maharashtra Finance Department identifies <a href=\"https:\/\/finance.maharashtra.gov.in\/en\/maharashtra-state-lottery\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">lottery.maharashtra.gov.in as the official Maharashtra State Lottery website<\/a>, where the department publishes scheme documents, result records and claim instructions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The draw rules are not a permanent number table. A Maharashtra government resolution dated 9 December 2022 described a revised Gajraj scheme from January 2023: a 4:00 PM draw, a \u20b920 ticket including GST, 20 series and 10,000 numbers in each series. That document described a \u20b99 lakh first common prize. Later official result PDFs show a different issued structure, including a GJ-00 to GJ-24 series range and a \u20b914 lakh first prize in the result dated 25 February 2025.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That difference matters. Do not copy a prize amount, series range or old winning number into a new draw. Always match the exact date and draw number on the official result PDF.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Monthly date pattern<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Gajraj is a monthly draw, but readers should not assume that it happens on one fixed weekday or the same date every month. The date is set in the Maharashtra State Lottery programme and appears on the relevant result record. For example, official result PDFs show draws on 25 January 2025 and 25 February 2025, both at 4:00 PM.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The official schedule page says Maharashtra has weekly, monthly and bumper draw programmes. Use its current schedule and the result search page together because a programme can be revised, and the result PDF is the final record for a completed draw.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Before checking, note these fields:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table ap-table\"><table><thead><tr><th>Field<\/th><th>What to confirm<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>Scheme<\/td><td>Maharashtra Gajraj Monthly, not a Gajlaxmi weekly or bumper draw<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Draw date<\/td><td>The date printed on your ticket or the date you are searching<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Draw number<\/td><td>The edition number shown in the PDF<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Time<\/td><td>The time printed on the applicable scheme or result record<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Series<\/td><td>The series printed before the ticket number, if applicable<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Ticket number<\/td><td>The complete number, including leading zeroes<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The 4:00 PM time appears in the published Gajraj scheme document and the official 2025 result PDFs. Treat it as a useful reference, not a substitute for checking the latest notice for your draw date.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Prize rows in a Gajraj result<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The prize rows below are transcribed from the official Maharashtra State Lottery result PDF for the 25 February 2025 Gajraj draw. That PDF labels the result as GJ-00 to GJ-24 and separates the first prize series from the common-to-all-series rows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table ap-table\"><table><thead><tr><th>Prize row<\/th><th>Amount shown in that official result<\/th><th>Number pattern<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>1st common prize<\/td><td>\u20b914,00,000<\/td><td>One full-digit number with the selected series<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>2nd prize<\/td><td>\u20b910,000<\/td><td>One full-digit number, common to all series<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>3rd prize<\/td><td>\u20b92,000<\/td><td>One full-digit number, common to all series<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>4th prize<\/td><td>\u20b91,000<\/td><td>One full-digit number, common to all series<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>5th prize<\/td><td>\u20b9500<\/td><td>Ten full-digit numbers, common to all series<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>6th prize<\/td><td>\u20b9200<\/td><td>Ten full-digit numbers, common to all series<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>7th prize<\/td><td>\u20b9100<\/td><td>Ten full-digit numbers, common to all series<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>8th prize<\/td><td>\u20b950<\/td><td>300 random full-digit numbers, common to all series<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cFull digit\u201d means you compare the complete number printed in the result, not only the last digit. \u201cCommon to all series\u201d means the listed number can apply across the series range stated in that result. The first-prize row is different because it includes a series and a number.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The older 2022 scheme document lists a different set of rows and amounts, which is why an old blog table or forwarded image may disagree with a newer result. Use the result PDF for the draw you are checking, and keep the original ticket until the claim process is complete.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<aside class=\"ap-note\"><p>Prize structures can be revised. The amount and row count in this guide are an example from a dated official result PDF; the exact draw-date PDF controls.<\/p><\/aside>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 1: Locate the correct draw date<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Why: A monthly scheme can have more than one result PDF in the archive, and a similar Maharashtra draw name can lead to the wrong file.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n\n<li>Open the <a href=\"https:\/\/lottery.maharashtra.gov.in\/lotterysearch.aspx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Maharashtra State Lottery result search page<\/a>.<\/li>\n\n\n<li>Use the date, month or year controls to narrow the search. If the page offers a scheme filter, select the Gajraj monthly entry.<\/li>\n\n\n<li>Look for a file name or result heading containing \u201cGajraj\u201d and \u201cMonthly\u201d. Do not select a Gajlaxmi weekly, Gaurav monthly or bumper result by mistake.<\/li>\n\n\n<li>Select the result whose printed date matches the draw date you need.<\/li>\n\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Success looks like: the result page or PDF clearly names Maharashtra Gajraj Monthly and shows a draw date, draw number and time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 2: Open the official result record<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Why: A screenshot shared in a chat can be cropped, edited or missing the series information needed to check a ticket.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n\n<li>Open the result PDF from the Maharashtra State Lottery result page.<\/li>\n\n\n<li>Read the heading at the top. It should identify the Maharashtra State Lottery and the Gajraj monthly draw.<\/li>\n\n\n<li>Confirm the place, date, draw number and time printed in the document.<\/li>\n\n\n<li>Save the PDF or write down its direct page address so you can return to the same dated record.<\/li>\n\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The <a href=\"https:\/\/lotterysambadapp.com\/blog\/lottery-sambad-result-pdf-download\/\">Lottery Result Download guide<\/a> explains basic checks for a result PDF, while the <a href=\"https:\/\/lotterysambadapp.com\/blog\/official-state-lottery-websites-india\/\">official state lottery websites guide<\/a> helps you distinguish a government source from an unrelated result page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Success looks like: you are reading a dated document from the official Maharashtra lottery domain, not a forwarded image or a page that only repeats a number without the draw details.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 3: Match the series and full ticket number<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Why: Gajraj result sheets may use a series prefix for the first prize and full four-digit numbers for other prize rows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n\n<li>Find your ticket\u2019s series, such as the GJ prefix and series number, if your ticket has one.<\/li>\n\n\n<li>Copy the complete ticket number exactly as printed, including a leading zero. For example, <code>0154<\/code> is not the same visual value as <code>154<\/code> when the result requires four digits.<\/li>\n\n\n<li>Start with the first-prize row and check both the series and the full number.<\/li>\n\n\n<li>Check the remaining rows against the complete number. If the result says a row is common to all series, the series does not change that row\u2019s number match.<\/li>\n\n\n<li>Compare the ticket date and draw number with the PDF once more before treating a match as valid.<\/li>\n\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Success looks like: the date, draw number, series and complete ticket number all agree with one prize row in the dated result record.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 4: Preserve the ticket and check the claim deadline<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Why: A result match is only the first check; the state\u2019s claim instructions require the original ticket and a time-bound claim.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n\n<li>Keep the original ticket clean and readable. Do not send it to a social-media account or an unknown person.<\/li>\n\n\n<li>Read the <a href=\"https:\/\/lottery.maharashtra.gov.in\/claim.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Maharashtra State Lottery prize-claim instructions<\/a> for the latest process and contact details.<\/li>\n\n\n<li>The published instructions say prizes up to \u20b910,000 can be claimed through the retail agent from whom the ticket was purchased. They say prizes above \u20b910,000 are claimed through the Deputy Director, Maharashtra State Lottery, at Vashi, Navi Mumbai.<\/li>\n\n\n<li>The same instructions say the claim, with the original ticket, must be made within 90 days of the draw date. They list a claim form, bond and bank details among the documents for a prize claim.<\/li>\n\n\n<li>Confirm the current threshold, forms and deadline with the state office before submitting anything, especially if the result sheet or later notice gives different instructions.<\/li>\n\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Success looks like: you have the original ticket, the dated result PDF, the correct claim route and enough time left under the current official instructions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Verify the result before making a claim<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Use two checks before acting:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n\n<li><strong>Document check:<\/strong> the PDF date and draw number match the ticket. The series range and prize row also match.<\/li>\n\n\n<li><strong>Source check:<\/strong> the result came from the Maharashtra State Lottery website or a state-published document, not a message promising a prize.<\/li>\n\n\n<li><strong>Number check:<\/strong> the complete number matches. A partial match, a similar-looking digit or a last-digit match is not enough.<\/li>\n\n\n<li><strong>Claim check:<\/strong> the official claim page gives the current address, documents and deadline.<\/li>\n\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Do not pay a \u201cprocessing fee\u201d, \u201crelease charge\u201d or \u201ctax\u201d to a caller who says they can unlock a prize. Do not share an Aadhaar number, bank login, OTP or ticket photograph with an unverified contact. A genuine check starts with the dated result record and the state\u2019s own claim instructions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For general reading help, see our <a href=\"https:\/\/lotterysambadapp.com\/blog\/lottery-sambad-result-sheet-explained\/\">How to Read a Lottery Sambad Result Sheet<\/a> article. For claim timing across different state schemes, see <a href=\"https:\/\/lotterysambadapp.com\/blog\/lottery-prize-claim-time-limit-by-state\/\">Lottery Prize Claim Time Limit by State<\/a>. These are general guides; Maharashtra\u2019s own instructions control a Maharashtra claim.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Troubleshooting common result checks<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The search page does not show Gajraj<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Check the date, month and year filters again. A result may be filed under the scheme\u2019s Marathi name or may be listed in a different result section. Start from the Maharashtra State Lottery home page and use its result search rather than a forwarded link.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The prize amount online is different from your old table<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Use the dated official PDF. The 2022 scheme document and later official result records do not show identical structures, so an older amount should not be carried forward automatically.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">My ticket has a leading zero<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Keep the zero when comparing the number. Lottery result sheets display full-digit numbers, so <code>0094<\/code>, <code>0940<\/code> and <code>9400<\/code> are separate four-digit entries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The first-prize number matches but the series does not<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Read the first-prize row carefully. If the row includes a selected series, the number alone is not enough; the series printed on the ticket must also match.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Someone asks for money before showing the result<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Stop the conversation and do not transfer money. Check the result yourself on the official source and use the claim contacts listed by Maharashtra State Lottery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Other Maharashtra monthly draws<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Gajraj is one of several monthly entries in the Maharashtra State Lottery programme. The department\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/lottery.maharashtra.gov.in\/Government-Resolution.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">government-resolution page<\/a> lists separate documents for Maharashtra Gaurav, Maharashtra Tejaswini, Maharashtra Sahyadri and a Ganeshlaxmi special or monthly draw, along with Gajraj.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Each scheme has its own date, ticket format, series and prize rows. Do not use a Gajraj table to check a Sahyadri, Gaurav or Tejaswini result. If you are comparing state lottery schedules generally, our <a href=\"https:\/\/lotterysambadapp.com\/lottery-sambad-draw-schedule\">Lottery Sambad draw schedule guide<\/a> covers the separate 1 PM, 6 PM and 8 PM Dear timetable; it is not the Maharashtra Gajraj schedule.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">FAQ<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">When is the Maharashtra Gajraj monthly draw?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is held once a month, but the exact date is set in the Maharashtra State Lottery programme. Check the current schedule and then confirm the date printed on the dated result PDF rather than relying on a fixed weekday pattern.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What time is the Gajraj monthly draw?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The revised scheme document and the official 2025 result PDFs show 4:00 PM. Because lottery schemes and programmes can be revised, confirm the time on the notice or result record for the draw you are checking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What are the Maharashtra Gajraj prize amounts?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">An official result dated 25 February 2025 listed \u20b914,00,000, \u20b910,000, \u20b92,000, \u20b91,000, \u20b9500, \u20b9200, \u20b9100 and \u20b950 rows, with different numbers of winning entries. The older 2022 scheme document lists a different structure, so the exact dated result PDF is the authority for each draw.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How do I check the Maharashtra Gajraj lottery result?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Open the Maharashtra State Lottery result search page, find the Gajraj monthly PDF for the correct date, and match the series and complete ticket number.
