According to trends released by the Election Commission for all 542 seats that went to polls BJP was set to return to power as it led in 292 seats while the Congress trailed far behind with 51.

If the trends stay until final results, the BJP would have improved on its 2014 performance when it had won 282 seats on its own in the 543-member Lok Sabha. 

Adding the seats won by its allies, the BJP-led National Democratic Alliance could win 343 seats, up from 336 in 2014.
