Prize bonds issued by National Savings remain a widely used, government-backed savings instrument in Pakistan. Lower denominations like Rs 100 draw broad participation thanks to low entry cost, while denominations such as Rs 1,500 strike a balance between affordability and larger prize pools. The structure typically awards a single top prize, a small number of second-tier prizes, and many third-tier prizes to increase the chances of gain for investors.
What to next
- Official lists: Winners should verify their numbers against the official National Savings publication and follow the prescribed claim procedures. Full lists of third-prize winners are normally released after the balloting.
- Upcoming draws: Keep an eye on the National Savings schedule for future draws across denominations if you hold bonds and want to track potential winnings.
- Claims and deadlines: Confirm claim windows and required documentation directly with National Savings offices to ensure prize redemption (procedures and time limits are set by the authority).
These two draws underline the continuing popularity of prize bonds as a risk-free, government-backed option for small savers and prize-seekers across Pakistan.
