Chanakya Exit Poll Predictions For Elections 2026 Highlights: Public opinion polling company Today's Chanakya today released its analysis for key assembly elections in West Bengal, Tamil Nadu, Assam and Kerala.
The TMC+ is expected to be relegated to 100 ± 11 seats with a 38% vote share, marking a major setback for the incumbent government. All other players combined are projected to be virtually wiped out, managing just 2 ± 2 seats.
The DMK-led alliance appears set to retain power in Tamil Nadu, but the headline is the dramatic entry of actor Vijay's TVK.
In Kerala, the "alternating power" tradition seems poised for a comeback. Today's Chanakya predicts a close fight but gives the UDF (Congress-led) the edge with 69 ± 9 seats, potentially unseating the LDF.
In Assam, the BJP is projected to maintain its iron grip. The pollster predicts a "massive majority" for the NDA with 102 ± 9 seats and a staggering 50% vote share, indicating a total consolidation of the electorate behind the incumbent government.
Health Warning: Exit Polls are not always accurate.

I just can't tell you who's winning. Isn't that honest and wise rather than taking these bets because we know that polling is not an exact science? All it can show us is the direction. One person shows you a wipeout, another person shows you victory, and what's very odd is that many news organisations and their Bengali channels are running polls which say that Mamata Banerjee is winning," Vir Sanghvi told NDTV.
