Despite the discord about the number of seats it will eventually win, most post-poll surveys are congruent about BJP-led National Democratic Alliance clinching the Lok Sabha elections 2014 come 16 May.
The latest exit poll results released by NDTV-Hansa is predicting that BJP-led NDA would comfortably pocket 279 seats. Not just that, in the best case scenario, it could end up with a whopping 300 seats.
The Congress, on the other hand, is likely to get 103 seats and “other parties”, especially the regional ones, could win a total of 161 seats among themselves.
NDTV survey is hopeful that the BJP would snap 56 seats in Uttar Pradesh, its second highest tally in the state. The BJP had won 57 seats in UP 1998. But unlike others, NDTV survey is predicting that the Aam Aadmi Party would finish with four seats (2 seats in Delhi and 2 seats in Punjab).
Meanwhile, the final survey result of IBN-CSDS National Election Tracker survey predicts that the BJP-led NDA would comfortably win 274-286 seats while the Congress-led UPA will have to settle with-102 seats. If that happens, it would possibly be Congresss lowest total ever in a general election.

Will Modi sweep Nitish's Bihar?
The final vote estimate for Bihar shows the Congress-RJD combine inching up by 1 percent to 30 percent. This upward movement likely reflects the fact that Lalu Yadav's momentum carried him upward in the final 6 north west Bihar constituencies that went to polls on May 12.
