Maharashtra Lottery Results: The Complete Guide to Gajlaxmi, Sahyadri, Ganeshlaxmi, Laxmi, Mohini, Monthly and Bumpers

Five Families, One Afternoon Window

Maharashtra does not run one lottery. It runs five weekly families, plus monthly draws and seasonal bumpers, all drawn in the same afternoon window and all published on our Maharashtra results hub. The families have different ticket prices, different draw days and different prize scales, and their tickets look different too: a Maharashtra ticket reads like a code, for example GL-07 3998, where the letters name the family and the two digits name the series. This guide explains each family, the afternoon draw window, the prize structures, and how to check a ticket without missing a smaller prize.

Maharashtra's lotteries are conducted by the Maharashtra State Lottery Department. Tickets are paper tickets sold through authorised agents, and as with every state lottery the physical ticket is the only document that can claim a prize. Keep it safe and undamaged.

The Weekly Families

Gajlaxmi — ₹20 ticket, drawn daily. The flagship family, with a new draw every day and a rotating daily name: the Saturday edition is Gajlaxmi Shani, and the 24 October 2026 draw, Gajlaxmi Shani GL-07 3998, is a typical example of how the ticket code works.
Sahyadri — ₹30 ticket, drawn Monday to Saturday. The 24 October 2026 draw was Sahyadri Prabhalaxmi SP-05 1833.
Ganeshlaxmi — ₹10 ticket, drawn Monday to Saturday. The cheapest weekly ticket in the state, and the 24 October 2026 draw was Ganeshlaxmi Samruddhi MG-00 8490.
Laxmi Weekly — ₹50 ticket, with rotating names under the Laxmi banner. The 24 October 2026 draw was Maharashtralaxmi ML-03 7663, which carried the ₹7 Lakh first prize described below.
Mohini — ₹15 ticket, drawn on Sundays. The Sunday-only family, and its first prize of ₹10,000 was independently verified from the 18 October 2026 draw, MO-08 5034.

The two-letter code at the start of every ticket tells you the family at a glance: GL for Gajlaxmi, SP for Sahyadri, MG for Ganeshlaxmi, ML for the Laxmi weekly, MO for Mohini. The two digits after the dash are the series, and the four digits after that are the ticket number. A full ticket therefore reads as family, series and number together, and the first prize needs all three parts to match exactly.

Draw Timings: 4:15 to 5:00 PM

The weekly draws are staggered across the afternoon, roughly between 4:15 PM and 5:00 PM IST, rather than sharing one draw time. Results are usually published within the hour after each draw, family by family, so if one family's result is live and another's is not yet showing, it usually means that family's draw is simply later in the window. Check back for the specific family rather than assuming the day's results are complete, and use the family pages — Gajlaxmi, Sahyadri, Ganeshlaxmi, Laxmi Weekly and Mohini each keep their own dated results.

Prize Structures: What Each Ticket Can Win

The prize scale depends on the ticket price, and Maharashtra keeps it simple. The ₹50 Laxmi Weekly schemes pay a first prize of ₹7,00,000 plus a consolation prize of ₹2,500. The ₹10, ₹15, ₹20 and ₹30 schemes — Ganeshlaxmi, Mohini, Gajlaxmi and Sahyadri — pay a first prize of ₹10,000 and no consolation prize. That is the whole top of the table for the weekly families, and it is worth knowing before you buy: a ₹50 ticket chases ₹7 Lakh, while the cheaper weeklies chase ₹10,000.

Below the first prize, the smaller tiers work on the last four digits of the ticket number, the same pattern used by most Indian state lotteries. A ticket whose full number misses the first prize can still win a smaller amount if its last four digits match a lower-tier number, so the correct way to check is always the full prize list, not just the jackpot line. The ticket checker tests every tier at once: enter the family code, series and number exactly as printed, and it will tell you if any tier matched.

Monthly Draws

Alongside the weeklies, Maharashtra runs monthly draws with much larger prizes. The Gaurav monthly draw on 21 October 2026 was won by G-04 5685 with a first prize of ₹27 Lakh. Monthly draws are the bridge between the weekly families and the bumpers: one draw a month, a bigger ticket field, and a first prize an order of magnitude above the weekly ₹10,000. Because they are monthly, their tickets stay on sale for weeks, and each monthly ticket is valid only for its own draw date — the same discipline as the weeklies, just on a longer cycle.

Seasonal Bumpers

The biggest Maharashtra prizes come from the seasonal bumpers, tied to festivals through the year. The Din bumper, drawn on 8 May 2026, was won by MD-07 5273 with a first prize of ₹27 Lakh. The Gudhipadva bumper, drawn on 20 March 2026, was won by GP-02 32583 with a first prize of ₹50 Lakh — the largest Maharashtra first prize in our records. The Natal bumper, drawn on 7 January 2026, was unusual in having two first prizes rather than one. Bumper tickets are sold for a limited window before the festival draw, and their results are published on the Maharashtra bumper page. As with every bumper, note the draw date on the ticket: a bumper ticket is valid only for its own festival draw.

How to Check Your Maharashtra Ticket

Start with the family and the date. A Gajlaxmi ticket belongs to its own day, a Mohini ticket to its own Sunday, and a monthly or bumper ticket to its own draw — the first check is always whether the result you are looking at is for the right family and the right date. Then match the code: family letters, series digits and the four-digit number, all three parts, for the first prize. Then check the last four digits against the lower tiers, where most of the smaller wins sit. The ticket checker does all of this in one step, and the result chart lets you scan a month of first prizes across families if you are checking an older ticket.

For anything that decides money, the official gazette is the final word. Our pages republish the winning numbers from the official announcements as fast as they are declared. If a number on any unofficial copy — a forwarded image, a shop notice, a message — disagrees with the gazette, trust the gazette, and keep the physical ticket safe until the claim is settled.

Claims, Safety and Responsible Play

Keep the ticket undamaged and check it promptly: prize claims are time-limited under the department's rules, and the exact window and claim route depend on the prize amount, so confirm them from the official announcement for your draw rather than from rumour. Small prizes are typically paid through authorised sellers, while large prizes go through the department with identity verification and tax deduction as applicable. Never buy from an unauthorised seller, and never pay anyone a fee to "release" a prize — genuine prizes are never charged for.

Finally, play within a budget you can afford. The draws are random: no family, series or number pattern is luckier than another, and past results never predict the next draw. Buy the ticket for the entertainment, check every tier, and treat any win as a bonus. Play responsibly, and only if you are 18 or older.

A Week in Maharashtra Lottery

A normal Maharashtra week has a clear rhythm. Monday to Saturday bring the Sahyadri and Ganeshlaxmi draws alongside the daily Gajlaxmi, the Laxmi Weekly runs its rotating names through the week, and Sunday belongs to Mohini alone. Saturday 24 October 2026 shows what a full day looks like: Gajlaxmi Shani GL-07 3998, Sahyadri Prabhalaxmi SP-05 1833, Ganeshlaxmi Samruddhi MG-00 8490 and Maharashtralaxmi ML-03 7663 were all drawn the same afternoon, each with its own first prize and its own lower tiers. That is why the Maharashtra hub is organised by family rather than by day: on any given date there are up to four separate results to check, and a ticket for one family can never win in another family's draw, even on the same date.

Reading the Ticket Code

Every Maharashtra ticket code has three parts, and reading them correctly is half of checking correctly. The letters name the family: GL for Gajlaxmi, SP for Sahyadri, MG for Ganeshlaxmi, ML for the Laxmi Weekly, MO for Mohini, G for the Gaurav monthly, MD for the Din bumper and GP for the Gudhipadva bumper. The two digits after the dash are the series, and the four digits after that are the ticket number. So GL-07 3998 is Gajlaxmi, series 07, number 3998; ML-03 7663 is the Laxmi Weekly, series 03, number 7663; and GP-02 32583 is the Gudhipadva bumper, series 02, number 32583. Two reading mistakes cause most false alarms: confusing the digit 0 with the letter O in the family code, and dropping the series digits when typing the number into a checker. The checker needs the full code — family, series and number — because the first prize is decided on all three parts together.

Common Mistakes When Checking

The most common mistake is checking the wrong family: a Gajlaxmi ticket compared against the Sahyadri result will never match, even on the right date. The second is checking only the jackpot line and missing the lower tiers, which are decided on the last four digits and account for most winning tickets. The third is comparing against the wrong date, especially with the monthly and bumper draws, whose tickets stay on sale for weeks before their draw — a Gaurav ticket bought in early October belongs to the 21 October draw and to no other. The fourth is trusting a forwarded image over the gazette: cropped or re-typed numbers cause false celebrations and false disappointments in equal measure. Confirm any win against the official gazette and the full result page before acting on it.

Weekly or Monthly: Picking Your Draw

The choice between the weekly families and the monthly draws is really a choice about budget and patience. The weeklies cost ₹10 to ₹50, draw almost every day, and pay ₹10,000 or, for the Laxmi Weekly, ₹7 Lakh — frequent small excitement with a modest top prize. The monthly draws cost more attention than money: one draw a month, a first prize of ₹27 Lakh for Gaurav, and a longer wait between buying and knowing. The bumpers sit above both, with festival prizes up to ₹50 Lakh in our records. None of these choices changes the odds in your favour — every draw is random, and no family, series or number is luckier than another. Pick the rhythm you enjoy, spend only what you can afford to lose, check every tier, and treat any win as a bonus.

Checking Older Tickets

Maharashtra tickets are often checked days or weeks after the draw, especially the monthly and bumper tickets that stay on sale for so long. The site keeps dated results for every family, so an older ticket can still be verified: open the family page — Gajlaxmi, Sahyadri, Ganeshlaxmi, Laxmi Weekly, Mohini, Monthly or Bumper — and pick the draw date. The archive holds months of past draws, and the result chart collects the last thirty days of first prizes across families in one table, which is useful when you remember the prize but not the exact date. The number history tool goes further: enter any four or five digits and it shows every draw in our records where that number won something, family by family. For very old tickets, or any ticket where the online record and your memory disagree, the official gazette for that draw date remains the final authority — keep the ticket until the check is settled, and never throw away a ticket you have not fully checked.
