- Retained46 (35%)
- Changed hands71 (53%)
- New seat16 (12%)
46 constituencies were won by the same party as last time; 71 changed hands. 16 did not exist at the previous election.
India’s constituencies have not been redrawn since the 2008 delimitation, so this compares the same seat boundary both times.
