How to Use Lottery Sambad: Complete Feature Guide & Tutorial

Open the Checker Modal or Page

Click the "Check Ticket" button in the top navigation bar from any page, or visit the dedicated /check/ page. You can also press / on your keyboard for instant focus.

Enter Your Ticket Number & Series

Type your 5-digit lottery number (e.g. 46097). If checking for the ₹1 Crore 1st Prize, include your 2-digit series prefix (e.g. 72C 46097). Our parser automatically separates series and serial digits.

Select Draw Slot & Draw Date

Select whether your ticket was purchased for the 1:00 PM Morning, 6:00 PM Day, or 8:00 PM Evening draw. The date defaults to today in Indian Standard Time (IST), or choose any historical date.

Instant Multi-Tier Verification Result

The result modal opens immediately. If you win, celebration fireworks activate and the exact prize tier is displayed:

• 1st Prize (₹1,00,00,000): Exact match of 2-digit series + 5 digits.
• Consolation (₹1,000): Matching 5 digits with any remaining series.
• 2nd to 5th Prize (₹9,000 to ₹120): Matched against official numbers.

Your personal ticket wallet operates completely inside your device’s browser via LocalStorage. We never track your tickets, require phone numbers, or upload your private ticket portfolio to any remote server.

Adding Tickets (Single or Bulk)

Tap the Wallet icon in the header. Enter a single ticket or paste comma-separated numbers from a message (e.g. 46097, 83120, 19485), select the draw slot, and tap "Add".

One-Click "Scan All" Batch Verification

Once the official draw gazette is published (at 1:00 PM, 6:00 PM, or 8:00 PM), simply open your wallet and tap "Scan All Tickets".
