Sri Lanka lottery board reports revenue above Rs50bn for first ten months

Sri Lanka's National Lotteries Board has reported lottery-sales revenue exceeding Rs50 billion for January to October 2026, according to November 11 reports by published reporting. The figure describes revenue, not net profit.
The board expects full-year revenue to exceed Rs60 billion. That remains a forecast for the year-end total; it is not the amount reported as already earned in the first ten months.
The same reports say Cabinet approved a staff bonus equal to two months' salary relating to 2025. They link the decision to the board's performance and employees' contribution. They do not state that the bonus has already been paid.
