In the run-up to the elections, most exit polls had predicted a comfortable win for Prime Minister Modi, with several forecasts even suggesting a two-thirds majority for the BJP-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA).

They confidently claimed that the opposition's INDIA bloc would be the one to form the next government.
The electoral contest was primarily between the incumbent NDA and the challenging INDIA bloc. Strategically, the BJP fielded candidates in 75 of the seats, allocating the remaining five to its smaller allies. Meanwhile, the composition of the INDIA bloc reflected a strategic alliance aimed at consolidating opposition efforts against the BJP.
