Results for the 2026 assembly elections in Assam, Kerala, Tamil Nadu, West Bengal, and the Union territory of Puducherry will be known soon, after months-long high-octane campaigning by political parties.
The Election Commission of India will be counting votes for the 2026 assembly elections on May 4 (Monday).
Voting for the Assam, Kerala, Tamil Nadu and Puducherry assembly elections took place in a single phase between April 9 and April 23, while West Bengal voted in two phases.
The ECI is expected to start counting at 8 am, with early trends expected soon after counting starts and a clearer picture of the results likely to emerge later in the day.
As protocol, postal ballots are opened first for counting and followed by EVMs.
Along with assembly elections, counting of votes will also take place for bypolls to eight assembly seats across six states.
Official results can be followed on the Election Commission’s website (eci.gov.in).
