Consolation, 4th to 9th prizes are matched on the last four digits (and, for consolation, the same number across other series). Always cross-check against the official gazette.

Where the top tickets were sold

The Rs 1 crore top ticket, MP 246836, was bought from an authorised seller in Alappuzha, adding another jackpot to the coastal district's tally. The Rs 25 lakh second prize (MS 559332) traces to Moovattupuzha in Ernakulam district, and the Rs 5 lakh third prize (MU 687040) was sold in Thiruvananthapuram. These sale locations are recorded in the official result and help confirm where the winning tickets entered circulation, though the individual agent's name is not published.

How to check the Samrudhi SM-68 result

Match your ticket in two steps: first confirm the full number for the 1st, 2nd, 3rd and consolation prizes, then check the last four digits for the 4th through 9th prizes. Live numbers appear from about 2:55 PM IST on draw day, and the official result PDF for SM-68 is published shortly after by the Directorate of Kerala State Lotteries. For accuracy, always verify against the printed gazette rather than any preliminary listing.

How to claim your prize

Prizes up to Rs 5,000 can be collected from any authorised Kerala lottery agent or the District Lottery Office. Anything above Rs 5,000 — which includes the crore, the Rs 25 lakh and the Rs 5 lakh prizes here — must be claimed by surrendering the original winning ticket along with a filled claim form and a government photo ID at a bank or District Lottery Office, generally within 30 days of the draw. Each of Kerala's 14 districts has a District Lottery Office for higher-value claims. See our full walkthrough at how to claim a Kerala lottery prize.

Prize structure

Samrudhi is a weekly Kerala State Lottery drawn every Sunday, with a fixed prize ladder topped by a Rs 1 crore first prize. It runs down through a Rs 25 lakh second prize, a Rs 5 lakh third prize, a consolation prize of Rs 5,000 for the near-miss series, and a series of lower tiers from Rs 5,000 down to Rs 100 that reward large numbers of ticket holders on last-four-digit matches.

Tax and agent commission

Prize winnings are subject to income tax deducted at source of around 30%, plus applicable surcharge and cess, taken before the payout reaches the winner. Authorised agents earn roughly 10% commission on sales. Treat these figures as general guidance, as rates are fixed by the Government of Kerala and can change.

Verify ticket authenticity

Before making any claim, confirm your ticket is genuine using the official Kerala Lottery barcode scanner and cross-check every digit against the official result gazette. A number that seems to match should still be verified against the printed source to avoid errors.

Issuing agency

The Samrudhi lottery is conducted 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; we report results for readers' convenience.

Play responsibly. Lottery is a game of chance — spend only what you can afford to lose, and never treat ticket buying as a way to make money.
