Following the last day of voting for the 2024 Indian Parliamentary elections, exit polls predicted that Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s National Democratic Alliance would retain its majority, winning 340 - 401 seats compared to 353 in 2019. The main opposition INDIA alliance was expected to win 109 - 169 seats, up from 91 in 2019. Three ‘neutral’ regional parties - the BRS, BJD and TMC, were expected to lose seats.
Compared to 2019, the NDA was expected to win West Bengal from the TMC, and to make inroads into south India, where it has historically been weak. In return, INDIA was expected to pick up seats in Maharashtra, Rajasthan, Haryana and Bihar, and to wrest Telangana from the BRS.
