Draw Timings, Shillong Teer Result

What Is Draw Timings?

In Shillong Teer, a draw timing is the fixed window of time during which licensed archers under the Khasi Hills Archery Sports Association (KHASA) shoot a set number of arrows at a cylindrical target. The outcome of that shooting session, specifically, the last two digits of the total arrows that strike the target, becomes the official result for that round. There is no mechanical or electronic random-number generator involved; the timing of the physical shooting entirely determines when a result is produced.

Shillong Teer runs two consecutive draw sessions every working day, Monday through Saturday. The first session, commonly called the First Round (FR), is scheduled to begin at 3:45 PM IST. The second session, the Second Round (SR), follows at approximately 4:45 PM IST. Both sessions take place at the Polo Ground in Shillong, Meghalaya, under KHASA supervision. The gap between sessions gives officials time to count the arrows embedded in the target with precision before the second group of archers steps forward.

Understanding draw timings matters because the Shillong Teer result is only meaningful once a session has concluded and the arrow count has been verified. Any figure circulating before the scheduled close of a session is speculation, not a confirmed result.

Draw Timings on Mobile

Most players check the Shillong Teer result on a smartphone, which makes timing awareness especially important. Because the draw follows a predictable daily schedule, the simplest and most reliable approach is to set two recurring alarms on your phone, one for 4:00 PM IST (a comfortable buffer after the First Round closes at 3:45 PM) and one for 5:00 PM IST (after the Second Round closes at 4:45 PM). When the alarm sounds, results published on this page will already reflect the verified count for that session.

Avoid the habit of refreshing any page during the session itself. The draw is a live physical event; the arrow count must be completed and announced by KHASA officials at the Polo Ground before any accurate figure can exist anywhere online. Checking too early only creates confusion if you encounter an unverified or estimated number.

On days when your device's time display reads ahead of or behind IST, keep a world-clock widget or use your phone's built-in clock set to Asia/Kolkata as the reference timezone. India does not observe daylight saving, so IST remains fixed at UTC+5:30 throughout the year, meaning you never need to mentally adjust for seasonal clock changes.

If you are in a different country, for example, checking from the United Kingdom (UTC+0 or UTC+1 in summer), the United Arab Emirates (UTC+4), or the United States (which spans UTC−5 to UTC−8), subtract or add the relevant offset from IST to identify your local equivalent of 3:45 PM and 4:45 PM IST before setting your alarms.

Draw Timings Safety and Timing

The scheduled draw timings of 3:45 PM and 4:45 PM IST apply on regular working days. Several real-world factors can cause sessions to begin slightly later or to be cancelled entirely, and knowing these in advance prevents misreading a delayed result as an error.

Public holidays and gazette notifications: Shillong Teer is suspended on national and Meghalaya state public holidays. KHASA does not conduct shooting on days such as Republic Day, Independence Day, and gazetted Meghalaya state observances. On those days no result is produced, and any figure appearing online should be treated with caution.

Weather conditions: Because archery takes place outdoors at the Polo Ground, heavy rain, thunderstorms, or unusually poor visibility can delay the start of a session. In such cases archers may begin later than the published time, which in turn pushes back the result by a corresponding margin. There is no automated or publicly broadcast delay notice; the session simply starts when conditions are safe for competition.

Crowd and administrative factors: On days with large crowds or when administrative verification takes longer, the interval between the First Round result and the Second Round start may extend past the usual one hour. Treat 4:45 PM as the earliest the Second Round can begin, not a guaranteed start time.

The single authoritative source for confirming whether a session took place on any given day is KHASA itself, reached in person or by direct contact at the Polo Ground in Shillong. For daily result figures after sessions close, this page publishes the verified numbers as soon as they are available.

How Draw Timings Works

Each draw session follows a structured sequence that begins well before the first arrow is released. KHASA officials prepare the cylindrical straw target, verify that all competing archers hold valid association licences, and confirm the precise number of arrows each archer is permitted to shoot in that session. In the First Round, archers typically shoot up to 30 arrows each; in the Second Round, the quota is usually 20 arrows each. The permitted totals can vary by KHASA's operational rules for that period, but the two-round structure and the approximate session times remain constant.

When the session begins, archers stand at a regulation distance from the target and shoot their allocated arrows within the allotted shooting window. Once time is called, no further arrows are released. Officials then physically count every arrow embedded in the target face. That raw count, say, 1,247 for the First Round, is reduced to its last two digits, producing 47 as the official First Round result. If the count ends in a round hundred (for example, exactly 1,200), the result is recorded as 00.

The verified count is then announced publicly at the Polo Ground and subsequently reported through authorised channels. This page reflects those announced figures. Because the result depends entirely on how many arrows physically strike the target during the scheduled session, there is no way to know the outcome before the session ends and the count is complete, which is exactly why checking this page at or after the times described above gives you the accurate, confirmed Shillong Teer result rather than an estimate.
