How to Check Your Ticket & Claim the Prize
Step-by-step checking
- Once the official result for SK 24 is published (likely late afternoon after the draw), compare your ticket number and series.
- Tickets are generally in series codes like RN, RO, RP… depending on the batch. Make sure your series matches the winning series for the prize category.
- Your ticket must be intact, legible, undamaged. Keep both the ticket and series code safe.
- For small prizes (e.g., ₹5,000 or less), you may claim at authorised retailers or district offices; for large prizes (₹5 lakh and above), you’ll need to follow formal claim procedure.
Claiming the prize
- Sign the back of the ticket as the claimant to establish your ownership.
- Gather valid identification: Aadhaar/Voter ID/Passport etc.
- Attach bank passbook copy for prize transfer.
- For large prizes: Submit your ticket, claim form, and ID documents at the Directorate of State Lotteries in Kerala (or the district office) within the deadline (typically 90 days from draw) – check official rules.
- Tax deduction: The prize amount may be subject to income tax and agent commission as per lottery norms. Past articles note about 30% deduction on the first prize.
Why SK 24 Draw Is Significant
- Life-changing prize: For many ticket purchasers, the chance to win ₹1 crore is a major motivator—paying off debts, building homes, securing children’s education.
- Welfare-oriented scheme: Lottery revenues in Kerala help fund social welfare initiatives; the draw is both a chance for individuals and support for larger public causes.
- Weekly fixture: Because this lottery occurs every Friday, it becomes part of regular household participation and hope.
- Wide footprint: Tickets sold across Kerala means the winner can come from any district—urban or rural.
Important Things to Remember & Watch Out For
- Only purchase physical tickets from authorised retail outlets within Kerala. Online purchase may not be valid if not authorised.
- Always check the draw name: For example, SK 24 (for 24 October 2025). Tickets from SK 23 or SK 22 cannot claim SK 24 prizes.
- Keep your ticket safe until claim is complete. Avoid folding, damaging or exposing your ticket which may lead to rejection.
- Verify official results via the Directorate’s website — some third-party sites publish early or unconfirmed numbers. The official site shows the draw list and dates.
- Don’t publish your ticket number publicly before claiming — fraudsters may misuse the number.
- After you win, seek professional advice (financial/tax) especially for top prizes, to plan for tax, investment and use of funds.
What Happens After the Draw
If you didn’t win SK 24, it’s not the end. The next weekly Suvarna Keralam draw (SK 25) will be held the following Friday with another ₹1 crore top prize.
If you did win, act promptly: verify your number, sign the ticket, prepare paperwork, avoid delays.
