The West Bengal Assembly election results will be declared on May 4, 2026, with counting set to begin at 8 AM. This election has seen unprecedented voter engagement, with a record turnout of 92.5% in the second phase and 92.88% in the first phase. Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar noted that these figures represent the highest polling percentages since India's independence. Counting will take place in 293 constituencies, with a repoll pending in Falta. Following a Special Intensive Revision (SIR) exercise that removed 91 lakh names from the electoral rolls, the electorate was reduced by 11.63%. Exit polls suggest a competitive battle, with the BJP projected to potentially lead over the ruling Trinamool Congress (TMC), although estimates vary widely. Projections show the TMC, led by Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee, could secure between 177-187 seats, while the BJP is estimated to win between 95-110 seats.
