In a news release on Friday, the Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office (PCSO) said the ticket with the winning numbers 06-24-25-28-02-16 was bought in Lucky Circle Corp. in Calamba City.
The winner has one year to claim the PHP9,045,796.60 jackpot at the PCSO main office in Mandaluyong City upon presentation of the winning ticket and two identification cards.
Under the Tax Reform for Acceleration and Inclusion law, lotto winnings worth more than PHP10,000 are subject to a 20 percent tax.
Meanwhile, 53 other bettors won PHP24,000 each for hitting five of the six winning numbers; while 1,928 will get PHP800 each for getting four correct digits and 24,440 will get PHP20 for three correct digits.
The 6/42 Lotto is drawn every Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday.
