Balloting for the Delhi assembly came to an end at 5 p.m. Wednesday, an official said.
Polling began at 8 a.m. for the 70-member assembly.
A total of 810 candidates battled it out in the polls in which over 11.9 million voters were eligible to exercise their franchise. Ballot count will be held December 8.
An estimated 60% of around 1.2 crore voters exercised their franchise election, which is witnessing a tight triangular contest among ruling the Congress, Bharatiya Janata Party and debutant Aam Admi Party, said the Election Commission. Polling percentage in R K Puram crossed 80.5 per cent, in Greater Kailash 79.74% cent and in Okhla 55%, according to CNN-IBN.
"It has been a good turnout all over Delhi. We are hoping the final percentage of voting will be between 70 and 75%," Delhi's Chief Electoral officer Vijay Dev told PTI earlier.
