Key facts about TMC elections 2026
The Thane Municipal Corporation consists of 131 seats. Within the Mahayuti, the Shiv Sena is contesting 87 seats, the BJP 40, and the remaining four have been allotted to smaller allies.
Among the opposition, Shiv Sena (UBT) is contesting 53 seats, the MNS 34, and the Sharad Pawar-led NCP 36 seats. The Ajit Pawar-led NCP, despite its alliance with the Sena and the BJP at the state and Centre, has fielded candidates in 75 seats. The Congress, which is part of the INDIA bloc, is also entering the race on its own in 96 seats.
What happened in 2017?
The last civic polls took place in 2017. At that time, the united Shiv Sena under Uddhav Thackeray and the BJP chose to compete separately, even though they were allies at the state level.
The Shiv Sena won 67 of the 131 seats and formed the municipal body independently. The NCP won 34 seats, while the BJP finished in third place with 23.
Following the split within the Shiv Sena, the political equation in Thane changed. Out of the 67 corporators elected in 2017, 66 have since moved to the Eknath Shinde-led Sena.
What should you expect?
Like other civic elections, Thane will see a strong contest. The outcome of the TMC polls are being closely tracked, along with results from Mumbai, Pune, Nagpur, Navi Mumbai, and other major cities.
