NDA government is favorite of the market due to its clean governance and progressive reform policies and a comfortable win to ruling party will further concrete the market’s view that ongoing reforms will continue. Most of the exit polls are predicting 350+ seats to NDA and some are even predicting 400+ seats for the ruling party and these stocks will be primary beneficiaries of government policies going ahead.

A little on Exit poll 2024: Narendra Modi wave still intact

Sh. Narendra Modi, “the biggest” political face in country and one of the most popular political personalities in the world right now is about to pull another stunner for his party once again as NDA is set to get its third term with a bang. Opposition’s unity once again proved to be hollow as voters rejected their lucrative poll promises and chose to go with ‘Modi ki guarantee’, a key term popularized by the prime minister in this election.

Coming to exit polls most of them are predicting a clear mandate of “a historic third term” for the ruling party NDA. The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP)-led National Democratic Alliance is projected to secure more than 350 seats, crossing the required halfway mark, while the Opposition I.N.D.I.A. bloc is expected to win less than 200 seats.

Among 13 exit polls, ten suggest though the BJP-led NDA will win at least 350 seats, it will fail to cross 400 seat milestone ( 400 seat milestone, a key term this election popularized by PM Narendra Modi as ‘Abki bar 400 par’) but three exit polls – India Today-My Axis India, India TV-CNX, and News24-Todays Chanakya exit polls have predicted 400 plus seats for the NDA.
