Kerala Lottery is India's oldest government-run lottery, operated by the Kerala State Lotteries Department since 1967, with a live draw held every day at 3:00 PM for one of seven weekly games — Samrudhi, Bhagyathara, Sthree Sakthi, Dhanalekshmi, Karunya Plus, Suvarna Keralam and Karunya — plus seasonal bumper draws through the year; this page brings you today's live result, the complete prize list, the result PDF and the lottery chart in one place, updated as soon as the Kerala State Lotteries Department confirms them.
The Kerala State Lottery was launched in 1967 under then Finance Minister P.K. Kunju Sahib, making it the first government-run lottery in India. It was introduced to raise state revenue while offering a regulated, legal alternative to unregulated gambling. Proceeds from ticket sales continue to fund public welfare schemes across healthcare, education and social security — the Karunya lottery series, for instance, was created specifically to support the state's healthcare assistance programmes. Nearly six decades on, Kerala remains the only Indian state to run a fully paper-based, publicly telecast lottery system, drawn live rather than through any online or computerised process.
Kerala Lottery Daily Draw Schedule
Kerala runs seven different weekly lotteries, one for each day of the week. Every draw has its own ticket series code, printed on the ticket and in the result PDF, and shares the same ₹50 ticket price and ₹1 Crore first prize across all seven games.

Kerala Lottery Result PDF Download
Every Kerala lottery draw is followed by an official result PDF published by the Kerala State Lotteries Department, listing the complete prize-wise winning numbers exactly as declared at the draw venue. This PDF is the authoritative record for claim purposes — always use it, rather than a live-updating webpage, as the final reference when verifying a high-value win. PDFs for the current day's draw, along with an archive of recent past results, are available for download directly from this page.
Kerala Lottery Chart & Guessing Numbers
The Kerala lottery chart is a consolidated, month-wise or year-wise listing of first-prize winning numbers across all seven weekly draws, useful for tracking historical results and verifying older tickets. Alongside the chart, you'll also find Kerala lottery guessing numbers — informal number predictions shared for entertainment purposes only. These guessing numbers are not issued or endorsed by the Kerala State Lotteries Department and carry no bearing on the actual draw outcome, which is entirely random.
Kerala Lottery Prize Structure
Prize amounts follow a similar tiered structure across all seven weekly lotteries, though second and third prize values can vary slightly by draw. Always confirm exact figures against the specific prize structure published for that day's lottery.

Typical Amount
1st Prize
₹1 Crore
2nd Prize

Kerala Lottery Bumper Draws
