NDTV-Hansa poll indicates majority for NDA
275 seats for NDA, with BJP alone garnering 226
NDTV-Hansa’s latest opinion poll accords majority to the BJP-led NDA. At 275 seats, the
NDA’s seat tally would surpass the requirement of majority by three.
The BJP is set to secure its highest ever tally of 226 seats. The most significant
implication of this is substantial erosion in the bargaining power of regional parties,
whose support now becomes optional for NDA.
As a corollary, the Congress (INC) is set to record its worst ever performance, with only
92 seats, while the UPA would have 111 seats.
The latest poll also indicates continued gains for the NDA in states like Maharashtra,
Odisha, Andhra Pradesh and Bihar. The markets have already rallied and are expected to
consolidate further in the backdrop of these developments.
Latest opinion poll indicates NDA gaining majority on its own
NDTV-Hansa’s latest opinion poll indicates that the BJP-led NDA would secure
absolute majority in the upcoming 2014 Lok Sabha polls. At an estimated 275
seats, the NDA would surpass the requirement for majority by three seats.
The BJP on its own would garner about 226 seats, its highest tally ever and 100
seats higher than the current Lok Sabha tally of 116 seats. BJP’s allies would win
49 seats, a gain of 32 seats from the 2009 tally.
In the recent months, the swing in favor of BJP/NDA has been large. Between
February 2014 and the first week of April 2014, NDA’s tally has increased by 45
seats (from 230 to 275), while BJP’s increased by 30 seats from 196 to 226.
The NDA’s vote share is projected at 34.5%, usually indicative of a large swing
closer to majority. Moreover, between February 2014 and the first week of April
itself, there is a vote share gain of 5% for the NDA.
The other poll agencies too have vetted the swing in favor of the BJP-led NDA,
though their last March 2014 tally falls short of the majority mark.
The INC is set to get only 92 seats, its lowest tally ever and 22 seats short of its
worst ever performance of 114 seats in 1999. The UPA is likely to win only 111
seats. This would also imply a loss of 114 seats for the INC and three seats for its
allies from the current Lok Sabha tally.
NDA gaining majority on its own would also lead to substantial erosion in the
bargaining chip of regional parties, whose support now becomes optional.

Swings in some key states
The NDTV-Hansa poll also indicates continued gains for BJP/NDA in most states.
In particular, large momentum is seen in Maharashtra. In Odisha, the NDTV-
Hansa April 2014 poll suggests a sharp increase in BJP/NDA seats.
In Andhra Pradesh, the alliance with TDP has possibly proved beneficial in
consolidating the NDA’s position. In Bihar, the NDA has reclaimed the
momentum lost in March 2014.
However, some loss is suggested in Karnataka and Uttar Pradesh.
In other states, the April 2014 poll suggests a gain of 1-2 seats.
