Prize bonds remain a popular investment option for millions of Pakistanis, offering both a secure saving method and the possibility of winning significant cash prizes.

Managed by the Central Directorate of National Savings (CDNS) since the 1960s, the scheme operates in collaboration with the central bank, allowing citizens to safeguard their money without the risk of devaluation.

The National Savings Division conducted the balloting for the Rs750 prize bond on April 15, 2025 in Peshawar.

According to the results, the first prize was awarded to bond number 261227, with winner receiving Rs Rs1,500,000.

The second prize, valued at Rs 500,000 each, was granted to three lucky bondholders holding numbers 204763, 413549 and 992747.
