If your total prize from the lottery exceeds ₹10,000 in a financial year, Tax Deducted at Source (TDS) must be applied before you receive the payout.

• 
  

  Lottery winnings above ₹10,000 are taxable under Section 194B of the Income-tax Act.

  
  


• 
  

  TDS is usually deducted at a flat rate of 30% plus cess and surcharge before you get the prize amount.

  
  


• 
  

  This tax is taken by the lottery authority (Nagaland govt) before payment.

Nagaland Dear Lottery Sambad Today: History, Importance And Significance

One of the oldest lottery systems in India that is approved by the government is the Nagaland State Lottery. In order to provide the government with a reliable source of income, lotteries were made legal in India in the 1960s. In 1972, Nagaland officially started holding lotteries under the state's Finance Department. From regular paper draws to a popular daily lottery with several draws—particularly Dear Morning, Dear Day, and Dear Evening—conducted every day, it has changed over time.
