Indian elections are won at the booth. Most campaigns still navigate blind.
VoteSutra is India's election data platform. We publish free constituency level data for every seat in India and ship booth level campaign intelligence to the candidates, campaigns and newsrooms that need to see one layer deeper.
Every seat in India, cycle by cycle
One dataset for every Assembly seat, every Parliamentary seat and every election since 2008. Free at the aggregate layer, priced only at the booth layer.
To become India's #1 political consultancy by helping our clients win through strategic, data-driven decision making.
We exist to give the candidates, campaigns and consultancies we work with a meaningful advantage before the vote is cast. That advantage does not come from opinion. It comes from the disciplined combination of political strategy, ground-truth data, sharp intelligence and modern technology, applied to one seat at a time.
Every product on VoteSutra is built to move a decision. Where to invest booth resources. Which community to convert. When to switch narratives. Which polling stations to defend. The measure of our work is simple. Did our clients win where the numbers said they could.
- Political strategy
Cycle-tested campaign frameworks tuned to Indian seats, communities and coalition maths, not imported templates.
- Data and intelligence
Booth-wise caste, past election trends, swing patterns and voter roll intelligence for every constituency we touch.
- Technology and delivery
A single platform, dossiers on WhatsApp within a working day and a booth management app that runs the ground game.
- Outcomes, not decks
We measure ourselves on seats won, margins protected and swing booths converted, not on slides shipped.
One platform, from the constituency profile to the booth level dossier
The free layer of VoteSutra maps every seat in India with caste demographics, historical elections since 2008 and top-line booth insights. On top of that, campaigns can commission granular dossiers, voter roll data, outreach infrastructure and field research from a single catalogue.
Data intelligence

Voter rolls and contact
Structured voter lists and verified phone numbers of prominent community members, cleaned for outreach and never resold.
Outreach at scale

Field ops and research
The booth management app that runs the ground game plus primary phone surveys and constituency deep dives on demand.
Built for anyone who takes Indian elections seriously

The rules the platform never breaks
These rules govern the free platform and every paid deliverable. They are what make VoteSutra usable for candidates, consultancies and newsrooms in the same room.
Our principles
Data before narrative
Every claim on VoteSutra is traceable to a booth-level number. If a source is not verifiable, it does not ship.
Cross party by design
We work with candidates and campaigns across the political spectrum. Colour palettes on VoteSutra are neutral so partisan cues never bleed into the data.
Public data stays public
Overall caste composition, election history since 2008 and the top ten booths for every seat remain free forever. No signup, no paywall.
Booth level or nothing
Macro national narratives lose seats. We ship the layer that actually wins on ground, one polling station at a time.
Data ethics, privacy and accuracy
Every deliverable on VoteSutra is aggregated at the polling station level. Individual voter identifiers, phone numbers or personal data are never shared unless the client already holds them lawfully. Handling is aligned with the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023. Field research runs through vetted state teams with written consent protocols in place.
- Aggregated at the booth
Community share, turnout, margin and swing patterns are always reported at a polling station or booth level, never at an individual voter level.
- Lawfully sourced primary data
Voter rolls, electoral returns and Election Commission notifications only. Third party data brokers are excluded from the pipeline.
- Exclusivity in writing
Once a candidate or campaign takes a constituency, we do not deliver the same seat's dossier to a rival campaign in the same cycle.
- Verifiable audit trail
Every booth number in a paid dossier links back to a specific ECI return, notification or field record. Nothing is asserted without a source.
