The BJP won its first seat after Mukesh Dalal, its candidate for Surat constituency in Gujarat, was elected unopposed as no voting was held in the constituency following rejection and withdrawal of other candidates.[1][2][3] Votes were counted and the result was declared on 4 June to form the 18th Lok Sabha.[4] On the day of counting, former Chief Minister of Chhattisgarh Bhupesh Baghel claimed that there was a discrepancy in EVM numbers while former Chief Minsiter of Uttar Pradesh Akhilesh Yadav accused the administration of carrying out arrests of opposition party workers to disrupt the counting process.[5]

The NDA led by BJP achieved a majority, winning 293 out of the 543 seats.[6] However, the BJP won 240 seats, down from the 303 seats it had secured in 2019, and lost its singular majority in the Lok Sabha.[7] The INDIA coalition outperformed expectations, securing 234 seats, 99 of which were won by INC, garnering the party the official opposition status for the first time in 10 years.[8][9][10] Seven independents and ten candidates from non-aligned parties also won the elections.[11][12][13]

The overall election result was described by several media sources as a shock to the BJP led by Modi as the party fell short of its expectations of winning 400 seats.[14][15][16] Though pre-poll predictions were for an overwhelming majority for the BJP, the INDIA bloc performed much better than exit polls had predicted it to, with upset victories in large states such as Uttar Pradesh, Maharashtra, and West Bengal.[17][18] The BJP had to rely on its alliance partners including the Telugu Desam Party (TDP) led by Chandrababu Naidu and the Janata Dal (United) (JD(U)) led by Nitish Kumar to achieve majority in the elections.[19][20][21]
