Last updated: 5 November 2026

The Big Ticket 292 grand prize of Dh25 million was won by Meena Sareen, an Indian national, with ticket 304251 in the live draw on 3 November 2026. Big Ticket's official winners page records the ticket as bought on the web. The same draw gave away five 200-gram gold bars as consolation prizes, a Range Rover Velar in the Dream Car draw, and picked three ticket holders for December's Big Spin. This page sets out every Series 292 result the operator has published.

Who won Big Ticket 292?

Meena Sareen won the Series 292 grand prize of Dh25 million on 3 November 2026. Big Ticket's winners club lists the ticket number as 304251, the nationality as India, and the purchase channel as "Web".

That is all the operator has published. When we checked on 4 November, we could find no interview in Khaleej Times or Gulf News giving the winner's age, home emirate or whether the ticket was bought by a group. We have not guessed at any of those details. We will update this page if the operator or a mainstream outlet publishes more.

Big Ticket's terms say grand-prize winners are invited to the following month's live draw, at their own expense, to select the next grand-prize winner, so the Series 292 winner may appear at the Series 293 show on 3 December.

What else was won in the 3 November draw?

Series 292 swapped its usual cash consolation and weekly prizes for gold, as our preview of the November draw reported in October. The official results confirm the swap.

Prize — Winner — Nationality — Ticket

• 1st consolation, 200g gold bar — Shafi Pokkulangara Bappuhaji — India — 346934
• 2nd consolation, 200g gold bar — Ahmed Alketbi — UAE — 236854
• 3rd consolation, 200g gold bar — Anshad Vm — India — 048930
• 4th consolation, 200g gold bar — Mohamed Muslim — India — 197099
• 5th consolation, 200g gold bar — Md Saiful Islam — Bangladesh — 302129

The five bars contain one kilogram of 24-karat gold between them. Big Ticket gives no dirham value for the bars, and their worth moves with the gold price, so we have not put a cash figure on them.

Who won the weekly gold bars in Series 292?

Sixteen more 200g bars went out in four weekly e-draws during the October sales period: four bars on each of 8, 15 and 22 October and 1 November. Indian nationals won 12 of the 16. The others went to winners from the Philippines (two), Pakistan and Oman, according to the operator's list.

Adding the weekly and consolation prizes together, Series 292 handed out 21 gold bars, or 4.2kg of gold, on top of the grand prize.

The gold did not last. Big Ticket's December prize table goes back to five Dh100,000 cash consolation prizes and four Dh25,000 weekly prizes.

Who won the Big Ticket Dream Car on 3 November?

Kaja Thooliyath Mohammed Molla Thooliyath, an Indian national, won the Range Rover Velar in Dream Car Series 22 with ticket 025383. Dream Car is a separate draw with its own Dh150 tickets.

The detail that stands out is the sales channel. The official list marks this ticket "Purchased from: Store". That makes it the first store-bought Dream Car win since February, when a BMW X5 went to a Bangladeshi buyer at a counter. All 11 Big Ticket grand prizes of 2026 have gone to tickets bought online. Counters are only at Zayed International Airport in Abu Dhabi and at Al Ain Airport. Big Ticket's help desk says there is no outlet in Dubai.

Who was picked for the Big Spin?

Three ticket holders were selected on 3 November: Mohammad Samir Alam (Bangladesh, ticket 106885), Keirnan Oflaherty (United Kingdom, ticket 003722) and Abdul Salam (India, ticket 286526). The official results list each prize as "Tbc".

Under Big Ticket's draw rules, the three are invited to the next monthly draw to spin for their prize, and they usually have to attend in person in Abu Dhabi. December's prize table advertises Big Spin prizes of "up to AED 1,000,000". The rules include a trade-off: a ticket chosen for the Big Spin "will be removed from the Big Ticket Monthly Draw and will not be eligible to win any prize in that draw".

How does Meena Sareen's win compare with the rest of 2026?

Series 292 is the 11th grand prize of the year and the third at Dh25 million. Here is the full year so far, from the operator's winners club:

Series and draw date — Winner (nationality) — Prize

• 282, 3 Jan — Anna Lee Gayongan (Philippines) — Dh30m
• 283, 3 Feb — Shanthanu Shettigar (India) — Dh20m
• 284, 4 Mar — Vibeesh Palliyali (India) — Dh15m
• 285, 3 Apr — Shamon Shaji (India) — Dh20m
• 286, 3 May — Abdul Rasheed Allipra Valappil Abdu (India) — Dh25m
• 287, 3 Jun — Krishnakumar Syamala Ravindran (India) — Dh20m
• 288, 3 Jul — Kanika Arora (India) — Dh25m
• 289, 3 Aug — Reynaldo Herboso (Philippines) — Dh20m
• 290, 3 Sep — Shaukat Aftab (Pakistan) — Dh15m
• 291, 3 Oct — Bernadette Azucena (Philippines) — Dh20m
• 292, 3 Nov — Meena Sareen (India) — Dh25m

Three patterns stand out:

• Indian nationals have won seven of the 11 grand prizes, Filipinos three and a Pakistani one.
• Every winning ticket was bought on the web. So was the ticket for Series 281 in December 2025.
• Dh25 million equals the year's second-largest prize. Only January's Dh30 million was bigger.

How does a Big Ticket winner collect Dh25 million?

In person. Big Ticket's terms say grand cash prize winners "can only obtain their prize payment in person at our office in Abu Dhabi". Payment is by cheque, and the operator does not cover travel costs. Winners have 180 days from the draw to collect, and the terms make the winner responsible for any taxes, duties or charges.

The help desk confirms that Indians living outside the UAE can buy tickets online and that smaller prizes are paid by bank transfer, but the grand-prize winner still has to visit the office. Our guide to claiming a UAE lottery prize compares this with the UAE Lottery's process. Our tax explainer covers what a home country such as India may charge.

When is the next Big Ticket draw?

Series 293 is scheduled for 3 December 2026 at 7:30pm UAE time. The grand prize is again Dh25 million, alongside three Big Spin prizes of up to Dh1 million, five Dh100,000 consolation prizes and four Dh25,000 weekly prizes. Under the draw rules, online sales for a December draw close at 23:45 on the last day of the preceding month, which is 30 November.

When we checked on 4 November, the site was running a "Buy 2 tickets, Get 3 Free" offer. It counts only when both paid tickets are bought in the same transaction. Big Ticket's rules say there is "no cap on entries", so the chance of winning depends on how many tickets are sold, a figure the operator does not publish. Big Ticket is one of two airport draws the GCGRA authorised to keep operating in December 2024, as our legal status guide explains. It is still a paid game of chance: spend only what you can afford to lose.
