How to Check Yesterday's Lottery Sambad Result

Published 2026-07-22

Checking yesterday's result is the single most common thing people do on a lottery results site, and it is also where most mistakes happen. Three separate draws share every day, so "yesterday's result" is really three different results — and the wrong one looks just as convincing as the right one.

Start from the slot, not the date

Your ticket is for one draw: the 1 PM, the 6 PM or the 8 PM. Find that slot first, then the date. We keep a dedicated page for each of yesterday's three draws, so you can go straight to the one you need instead of scanning a full day's sheet:

• 1 PM yesterday — the afternoon Nagaland State Lottery (Dear) draw.
• 6 PM yesterday — the evening Sikkim State Lottery draw, widely searched as Dhankesari.
• 8 PM yesterday — the night Nagaland State Lottery (Dear) draw.

Confirm the date in IST, not your device clock

Every one of these draws is scheduled in Indian Standard Time. If you are checking late at night, or from outside India, your device's idea of "yesterday" and the lottery's can differ by a day. Our pages label every result with its IST draw date in d.m.yyyy form, so you can match it against the date printed on your ticket without doing any timezone arithmetic.

Yesterday's page vs the permanent record

A "yesterday" page rolls forward every day at IST midnight — useful for a quick check, useless as a reference you want to come back to. Each draw also has a permanent, dated archive page that never changes. If you are bookmarking a result, saving it for a claim query, or sending it to someone, use the dated page, not the yesterday page. Every yesterday page links straight to it.

Check the whole sheet, not just the top number

• Match the full number, including the series prefix, against the 1st, 2nd and 3rd prizes.
• Match only your ticket's ending digits against the 4th and 5th prize lists.
• Re-read the date and slot on the page one more time before you conclude anything.

We publish a number only after at least two independent public sources agree on it, and yesterday's numbers stay exactly as published — we never quietly restate an old result as a current one. Before acting on any result, confirm it against the official government bulletin for that state.
