The Kapruka Lottery starts with an initial jackpot of LKR. 7.5 million and a lucky winner from Ratnapura has won the final jackpot of LKR. 145,029,213.00 in the 513th draw of 27.10.2019.

This winning lottery ticket has been sold by DLB agent Ms. R. Some Priyanthi of Godakawela.

Although Kotipathi Kapruka Lottery was initially introduced to the market in 2016 it was reintroduced to the market last August with an attractive look and DLB is proud that within a short period of 3 years a lucky person has been able to win this largest jackpot.

Kotipathi Kapruka which was initially named as kotipathi Shanida has been able to produce 08 jackpot winners to date and has disbursed a sum of LKR. 751 million as prize money.

While wishing all our customers the best of luck in their future purchases of DLB lott ery's and hoping that they too will win the jackpot the DLB expects to offer better and innovative lotteries in the future too.
