About Punjab State Lottery
Punjab State Lottery is the official lottery scheme operated by the Government of Punjab through the Directorate of Small Savings, Banking and Lotteries, Punjab. As a government-run lottery, Punjab State Lottery follows fixed rules for ticket printing, prize structure, draw procedure and prize claims, published under the Punjab State Government Gazette.
Punjab Lottery draws are held on a regular schedule, with special festive bumper draws such as the Rakhi Bumper, Baisakhi Bumper, Diwali Bumper and New Year Bumper offering larger prize pools than the standard weekly draws. Every Punjab State Lottery ticket carries a printed series, number and MRP, and every draw result is published officially so that ticket holders can verify their prize.
This site provides authorised, up-to-date information for every Punjab State Lottery draw, including ticket price, draw date, complete prize structure and the official claim process, so that buyers, sellers and stockists can rely on one accurate source instead of unverified messages or forwarded images.
Punjab State Dear Rakhi Bumper 2026 – This Month’s Featured Punjab Lottery Draw
The Rakhi Bumper is not a regular daily lottery ticket. It is a festive bumper draw in the Punjab State Lottery calendar, created around the Raksha Bandhan season, and it is one of the highest-value seasonal draws of the year. The biggest attraction is the ₹7 Crore guaranteed first prize for the winner. Along with the first prize, the scheme includes a ₹50 Lakh second prize, four ₹20 Lakh third prizes, four ₹10 Lakh fourth prizes, four ₹5 Lakh fifth prizes and thousands of smaller prize opportunities.
For a shop counter, this is the type of Punjab Lottery ticket that can be explained simply to every customer: the ticket price is ₹500, the draw is scheduled for 29 August 2026 at 6:00 PM onwards, and the result can be checked after the draw through trusted Punjab State Lottery result updates. Customers who buy bumper lotteries usually look for three things before buying: the first prize amount, the total number of prizes and the claim process. The Punjab State Dear Rakhi Bumper 2026 clearly provides all three details below.
The scheme covers fourteen lakh tickets across two series, A and B, with numbering from 300000 to 999999 in each series. The draw of the first prize will be held out of sold tickets only, while the remaining prizes are drawn as per the scheme terms. Buyers should keep the original ticket safely because prize payment is made only on presentation of the original winning ticket.
