fi is expected to return a single result. i got it fixed like this:

txn = Transaction.objects.extra(
                where=['tpin=%s or teller_no=%s or identifier=%s AND
financial_institution_id=%s'],
                params=[value, str(value), value, fi])

removed the parenthesis that encapsulates tpin, teller_no and identifier.

Thanks
