Most of the exit polls predicted Mr. Modi's party and its allies would win about 290 to 300 seats in the 545-seat lower house, which chooses the prime minister.

However, a number of exit polls predicted big losses for the BJP in Uttar Pradesh, where it had won 71 seats in 2014, but the saffron party appeared to make major gains in other states. Here we take a look at the state wise performance

Uttar Pradesh

The battle for Uttar Pradesh is important for the BJP since the state will not just elect Prime Minister Narendra Modi, but is also crucial for the party since the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) won 73 seats in the 2014 general elections and was instrumental in helping the BJP form a majority government on its own.

Exit polls differ widely on their projections for Lok Sabha seats in Uttar Pradesh, aligned only in predicting that the tally of the BJP-led National Democratic Alliance's tally will come from the spectacular 73 of 80 seats five years ago.

A survey by Times Now-VMR shows the NDA winning 58 seats in the state, with the Congress-led UPA winning two. While SP-BSP will get 20 seats.

But the ABP-AC Nielsen exit poll predicts the opposite; 22 for the BJP and allies and 56 for the others, which includes the BSP-SP alliance. This survey too predicts a bleak 2 for the Congress, equal to the party's tally in the 2014 Lok Sabha elections.

West Bengal

The Trinamool Congress (TMC) will continue its domination of Bengal, many exit polls have predicted.

the India Today-Axis My India Exit Poll suggested a neck-and-neck fight between the TMC and BJP with 19-22 seats for Mamata Banerjee's party and 19-23 seats for the saffron side.
