For decades the Development Lotteries Board (DLB) has been dedicated to uplifting lives in Sri Lanka and has contributed to development in the country through its marketing and corporate social responsibility endeavours. Recently it made a record breaking change and relaunched the popular product ‘Lakshapathi’ by rebranding it as ‘Dasalakshapathi.’ The objective of revitalising the brand is to offer loyal consumers greater opportunities to win a bigger prize, the DLB said in a media release.

Consumers who purchase the newly re-branded lottery stand a chance of winning a motor car worth Rs. 2.5 million by lining up three lucky figures, letters in the English alphabet and the date correctly. A consolation prize of Rs. 20 can be won by matching any number correctly, Rs. 200 by matching any two numbers while Rs.100,000 is the jackpot for the winner who lines up three numbers correctly. Matching any number and an English letter wins Rs. 100 while two numbers and one English letter will win Rs. 1,000. The prize for lining up 3 numbers and an English letter correctly is Rs. 100,000 while those who have 3 numbers, an English letter and the date correctly have the chance of winning a car in the new Dasalakshapathi lottery.

“Those who vie to win in this newly rebranded lottery get more chances of winning. Selection of the winner based on 3 out of 55 chances; one out of 26 chances; one out of 7 days of the week are the special opportunities to win, offered to competing consumers in this outstanding lottery. Lakshapathi lottery has created the highest demand in the history of lotteries in Sri Lanka by offering 50 chances to win within a short span of time and created over 2,700 winners who won Rs.100,000 each. The objective of the new product is to open the opportunity to win for more people and distribute the prize money  equitably. With this purpose in mind, the Development Lotteries Board has presented Dasalakshapathi branded lottery to attract more people to purchase and win and this itself is a significant milestone,” the release said.
