Two bettors from Cavite and Cagayan de Oro will split the P118 million jackpot of Monday night’s Mega Lotto 6/45 draw.
In an advisory on Tuesday, the Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office (PCSO) said the winners from Imus City and Cagayan de Oro City correctly guessed the winning combination of 25-37-08-45-24-18.
The winners have a year to claim their share of the P118,964,375.60 jackpot at the PCSO main office in Mandaluyong City upon presentation of the winning ticket and two ID cards.
Meanwhile, 59 other bettors won P32,000 each for guessing five of the six winning digits; 2,420 will get P1,000 each for four correct digits; and 38,709 will settle for P30 each for three correct digits.
Lotto winnings of more than P10,000 will be subjected to 20% tax under the Tax Reform for Acceleration and Inclusion Law.
The 6/45 Mega Lotto is drawn every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.
The PCSO urges the public to support its gaming products to raise more revenues for health initiatives, medical services, and other national charities.
