Preface
KaliaGroup has played an important role in enhancing the sale of Prize Bonds nation wide. More over, they have also given many useful suggestions and feedbacks to the Government to run this scheme in a profitable and successful manner. In fact, the recent withdrawal of the series-wise draw system was solely due to Kalia Group’s tireless efforts. And this Group is also persuading the Govt. to increase the number of prizes in a series, which hopefully, like in the past on Group's demand, would be implemented in the near future.

Tips
- Only that Prize Bond whose date of issuance is at least 60 days prior to the draw date, is entitled for a win.
- There was a series wise draw before 15th November 2000. Therefore, to claim for those prize(s) which were announced in the draws held before 15th November 2000, the prize bond's series should also match with that of draw result. From the draws held after 15th November 2000, you don’t have to match the series but the Numbers only.
- As validity of a prize is six years, so you may claim your prize(s) till six years from the date of that particular draw.
- Some of the Prize Bonds are withdrawn by the Government of Pakistan and now no more can be encashed from any authorized Government body. However prizes announced on them can be claimed. As validity of a prize is six years, so you may claim your prize(s) till six years from the date of that particular draw.
