The Nagaland State Lottery holds three daily draws — at 1:00 PM, 6:00 PM and 8:00 PM — under the brands Dear Morning, Dear Day and Dear Evening. Each ticket costs ₹6, and the top prize in these draws is ₹1 crore plus any designated Super Prize. Draw names change by day, offering a predictable weekly schedule for players and retailers.
Draws follow a fixed weekly rotation: Monday features Dear Dwarka (morning), Dear Desert (day) and Dear Finch (evening); Tuesday runs Dear Godavari, Dear Wave and Dear Goose; Wednesday has Dear Indus, Dear Hill and Dear Pelican; Thursday offers Dear Mahanadi, Dear Lake and Dear Sandpiper; Friday presents Dear Meghna, Dear Mountain and Dear Seagull; Saturday includes Dear Narmada, Dear River and Dear Stork; and Sunday concludes the week with Dear Yamuna, Dear Sea and Dear Toucan.
Ticket production and serialisation vary by draw. Dear Morning is printed to a total of 5.80 crore tickets across series numbered 42–99 and lettered series A, B, C, D, E, G, H, J, K, L, with serial numbers from 00000 to 99999. Dear Day production totals 2.80 crore tickets in series 74–99 and the same letter series, using serial numbers 00000–99999. Dear Evening issues 7.00 crore tickets across series 30–99 and the letter series A, B, C, D, E, G, H, J, K, L with serial numbers 00000–99999. The price for every ticket is ₹6.
Nagaland is one of 13 Indian states that legally permit state-run lotteries; others include Assam, Mizoram, Kerala, Meghalaya, Manipur, Arunachal Pradesh, Goa, Maharashtra, Madhya Pradesh, Punjab, West Bengal and Sikkim. The remaining states in India have prohibited the sale and conduct of lottery games.
Official results are normally posted shortly after each draw and can be checked on web platforms such as Lottery Sambad and Dhankesari, as well as in the Official Government Gazette. Winners should retain intact tickets and act promptly: to claim a prize, submit the original, untorn winning ticket with a completed claim form, attach a government-recognized photo ID and passport-size photographs, and ensure the ticket is neither tampered with nor mutilated. Prizes up to ₹10,000 are usually disbursed through authorised distributors, stockists, agents or sellers appointed by the state government.
