Christmas came early for a lone bettor from Cavite province who bagged the P55 million jackpot of Monday night’s Grand Lotto 6/55 draw.

In an advisory Tuesday, the Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office (PCSO) said the winning ticket bearing the lucky numbers 21-40-15-55-10-54 was bought in Trece Martires City.

The total jackpot prize is P55,648,009.00.

Meanwhile, seven others won P100,000 each for hitting five out of the six winning numbers; and 499 bettors will get P1,500 each for getting four correct numbers and 11,104 bettors will get P60.

The winners have one year from the date of the draw to claim the prize, as specified in Republic Act 1169 or the law on PCSO lotteries.

All jackpot prizes must be claimed at the PCSO main office on Shaw Boulevard, Mandaluyong City.

Winners must write their names and signatures on the back of the winning tickets and present two government-issued identification cards or documents.

Lotto winnings of more than P10,000 are subject to 20% tax under the Tax Reform for Acceleration and Inclusion law.

The Grand Lotto 6/55 is drawn every Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday.
