Lotto 6/58 prize to hit P142 million

MANILA, Philippines —  The Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office (PCSO) has estimated the Ultra Lotto 6/58 jackpot prize to reach P142 million in tonight’s draw.

Melquiades Robles, PCSO general manager, said there was again no jackpot winner in the Ultra Lotto 6/58 draw last Tuesday, which yielded the winning combination 18-02-36-33-49-05.

The draw carried a jackpot prize of P135,367,602.

Robles said there were six second prize winners who correctly guessed five digits of the six-digit winning combination. The six can each claim P120,000.

The Tax Reform for Acceleration and Inclusion Law imposes a 20-percent tax on all lotto winnings above P10,000.

The Ultra Lotto is drawn every Tuesday, Friday and Sunday.
