On Tuesday night, after the last voting period in Bihar finished, exit polls from People's Pulse, People's Insight, Matrize, and P-Marq suggested that the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) would win the Bihar assembly elections. But, some exit poll results are still not out.
The second and last round of voting in Bihar saw a record number of people vote, with 68.76 percent turning out, which is the most ever for the state. This beat the previous record of 65.08 percent from the first voting round, which was thought to be the highest before.
Many pollsters, including Matrize, P-Marq, and Dainik Bhaskar, predicted the NDA would get at least 140 seats. Other groups, like Peoples Pulse, People's Insight, JVC, and Polstrat, indicated that the BJP-JD(U) team would easily win. Still, a few exit polls are yet to be announced.
Most predictions came out starting at 6:30 pm on Tuesday night, but Axis My India, C-Voter, and Today's Chanakya did not release theirs. These are expected to be available on Wednesday (November 12).
The announcement stated, "The wait is nearly done! Axis My India will share its exit poll results for the Bihar elections starting at 5:30 pm tomorrow, November 12, 2025."
Today's Chanakya announced that its exit poll results will come out on Wednesday. They shared on X, "Please note, we will share our analysis of the Bihar Assembly Elections tomorrow, November 12, 2025."
C-Voter's poll predictions are also likely to be released on Wednesday, though this hasn't been officially confirmed.
Regarding other exit polls, Dainik Bhaskar predicted the NDA would get 145-160 seats, the Mahagathbandhan 73-91, and Jan Suraaj 0-3. The Matrize Exit Poll estimated the NDA winning 147-167 seats, the Mahagathbandhan 70-90, and Jan Suraaj 0-2 seats.
The People's Pulse projected 133-159 seats for the NDA, 75-101 for the Mahagathbandhan, and 0-5 for Prashant Kishore's Jan Suraaj party.
Exit polls are created by survey companies that question voters leaving polling places in different areas of a state after they cast their ballots.
However, exit polls are not always correct and have been wrong many times in the past when compared to the final election results.
