What exactly are the 'Old Lottery Sambad' results?
The term ‘Old Lottery Sambad’ refers to the results from previous draws of the Nagaland State Lottery, specifically the three daily draws held under the ‘Dear’ series. These are the 1 PM, 6 PM, and 8 PM draws from the day before you’re checking.
Lottery Sambad is not a single lottery but a popular name for the published results of these state-authorised lotteries. When you look for ‘yesterday’s’ results, you are checking the official, historical record of winning numbers and prize tiers for those draws. These results are final and legally binding for prize claims.
How can I check yesterday's Old Lottery Sambad results?
You don’t need to visit multiple websites or guess the winning numbers. The official, verifiable results for all three daily draws are published together in a single PDF document, typically titled ‘Lottery Sambad Result’ with the date.
Here is the simplest way to check:
- Locate the official result PDF for the previous day’s draws, which is available on this website and other authorised information portals.
- Download the PDF file and open it on your device.

Always use this official published result for verification, as it is the only source trusted for claiming prizes.
A step-by-step guide to verifying your ticket
Once you have the official result PDF open, follow these clear steps to check your Old Lottery Sambad ticket from yesterday.
Step 1: Identify your draw time. Match your ticket to the correct section in the PDF for either the 1 PM, 6 PM, or 8 PM draw.
Step 2: Compare ticket numbers. Check your ticket’s alphanumeric serial number and the printed numbers against the winning numbers listed for that draw.
Step 3: Determine the prize tier. The result sheet shows which number sequences correspond to the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and other consolation prizes. Prizes are awarded for matching the numbers from the end of the sequence backwards.
If your ticket’s numbers match any of the winning sequences exactly as shown, you have a valid claim. It is crucial to do this check yourself using the official document to avoid any misunderstanding.
What are the prize tiers in an Old Lottery Sambad draw?
The prize structure for Nagaland State Lottery draws offers multiple tiers, but the exact amounts for each prize can vary between draws and schemes. It is not a single fixed amount for every ‘1st Prize’.
The typical structure includes:
- First Prize: The top prize for matching all digits in exact order from the end.
- Second Prize: Awarded for matching the next set of digits.
- Third Prize: And subsequent prizes for matching further sequences.
- Consolation Prizes: Often awarded for tickets with numbers close to the winning ones.
The definitive prize amounts for yesterday’s specific draws are always listed in detail on the official published result sheet you download. You must refer to that document for the exact prize money corresponding to each tier for the 1 PM, 6 PM, and 8 PM draws.

Remember to play responsibly
Lotteries are a form of entertainment and should be treated as such. It is important to set a budget for play that does not affect your essential expenses and to stick to it.
Participation in the Nagaland State Lottery, including Lottery Sambad draws, is restricted to individuals aged 18 years and above. Never view lotteries as a way to solve financial problems or an alternative to income. The odds of winning any prize, let alone a top prize, are mathematically very low.
If you feel your gambling is becoming a problem, seek help from responsible gambling support organisations. Checking old results should be a simple act of verification, not a source of stress.
Frequently Asked Questions
What time were the Old Lottery Sambad draws held yesterday?
Yesterday’s Old Lottery Sambad refers to the three standard Nagaland State Lottery draws, which are always held at 1:00 PM, 6:00 PM, and 8:00 PM (Indian Standard Time). The results for all three are published together after the last draw concludes.
Can I check yesterday's results online for free?
Yes, absolutely. The official results are published as a free-to-download PDF document on various informational websites, including this one. There is no charge to view or download the official result sheet.
How long do I have to claim a prize from an old draw?
The standard claim period for Nagaland State Lottery prizes is 30 days from the date of the draw. If you have a winning ticket from yesterday’s draw, ensure you submit your claim with all required documents well before this deadline expires.
Is there a different process for claiming a consolation prize?
The claim process is generally the same for all prize tiers, requiring the original ticket and ID proof. However, smaller consolation prizes may sometimes be claimable directly from authorised lottery vendors, while larger prizes must be claimed from the designated lottery office. Always check the official rules on the result sheet.
Why do the prize amounts vary between draws?
Prize amounts are determined by the specific lottery scheme or ‘series’ being run, and the number of tickets sold. Different schemes have different prize fund allocations, which is why the amount for a ‘1st Prize’ is not the same in every 8 PM draw. The exact amounts for each draw are always specified on the official result.
What should I do if I lose my winning ticket?
The original physical ticket is mandatory to claim any prize. Without it, a claim cannot be processed. It is the sole proof of your purchase and ownership. Always store your lottery tickets in a safe place until you have checked the results and, if winning, until the claim process is complete.
