The National Democratic Alliance was likely to get 31 seats in Maharashtra while the Congress-NCP alliance would get 13 of the 48 seats in the state.

In West Bengal, it said the ruling Trinamool was likely to emerge as largest party with 28 seats and 41 percent vote share.

"It is a major gain for the party which won 19 seats in 2009 in West Bengal," it said.

As per the opinion poll, Left parties were likely to get 10 seats and 31 percent votes.
