About the winning ticket's sale location
The KR-765 first-prize ticket, KW 159168, was booked through the authorised sales network in Kottayam. Only the sale location is confirmed by the official gazette — the identity of the agent or buyer is not part of the published record. Winners are advised to keep the ticket safe and sign the reverse before beginning any claim.
How to check the Karunya KR-765 result
Live numbers begin appearing from around 2:55 PM IST on draw day, with the official result PDF released shortly after the draw concludes. Always cross-check your ticket against the official gazette rather than relying on memory or screenshots. Match the full ticket number for the top three prizes and the last four digits for the lower tiers.
How and where to claim your prize
Prizes up to Rs 5,000 can be collected from any authorised Kerala lottery agent or seller, or from the District Lottery Office. For amounts above Rs 5,000 — including the crore-rupee first prize — you must surrender the original winning ticket along with a completed claim form and a government photo ID at a bank or the District Lottery Office / Directorate, generally within 30 days of the draw. Each of Kerala's 14 districts has its own District Lottery Office for higher-value claims. A step-by-step walkthrough is available in our guide to claiming a Kerala lottery prize.
Prize structure
Karunya follows the standard Kerala weekly format: a single first prize of Rs 1 crore, a second prize of Rs 25 lakh, a third prize of Rs 10 lakh, and a cascade of smaller prizes from Rs 5,000 down to Rs 100. Eleven consolation prizes of Rs 5,000 each are awarded to the matching numbers in the remaining series.
Tax on winnings and agent commission
Lottery winnings are subject to income tax deducted at source (TDS) of about 30%, plus applicable surcharge and cess, which is withheld before the prize is paid out. Authorised agents typically earn around 10% commission on ticket sales. Treat these figures as general guidance and confirm the current rates with the Directorate or a qualified tax advisor.
Verify ticket authenticity
Before claiming, verify your ticket using the official Kerala Lottery barcode scanner and match the numbers against the official result gazette. Genuine tickets carry security features and a valid barcode — never pay any fee to "release" a prize, as no such charge exists.
Issuing agency
The Karunya lottery is conducted and published by the Directorate of Kerala State Lotteries, under the Taxes (Lotteries) Department, Government of Kerala, headquartered at Vikas Bhavan, Thiruvananthapuram. This website is independent and not affiliated with the Directorate; the official gazette remains the final authority on all results.
Play responsibly. Lottery is a game of chance — spend only what you can comfortably afford and never borrow to buy tickets.
