A bettor, who bought a ticket in Bacolod City, bagged the P7.3 million jackpot in the Lotto 6/42 draw Feb. 6.
The winning number combination, 27-23-31-20-14-28, carried a jackpot prize of P7,341,411 and was won by a bettor who bought a ticket in Bacolod, the Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office (PCSO) said in an advisory Feb. 7.
The check can be claimed at the PCSO main office in Mandaluyong City upon presentation of the winning ticket and two identification cards. The bettor has one year to claim the prize.
Lotto winnings of over P10,000 shall be subject to a 20 percent tax under the Tax Reform for Acceleration and Inclusion law.
The 6/42 Lotto is drawn every Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday.
The bettor is the state lottery agency’s second millionaire for February, after another from Quezon province won the P5.9 million jackpot of the Lotto 6/42 draw Feb. 1.
The PCSO is urging the public to patronize the games since a large portion of the revenues goes to the government’s charity programs. | PNA
