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.
