With the saffron juggernaut decimating the opposition and giving the BJP its highest ever tally in Lok Sabha, the party is likely to push its political agenda with a renewed vigour and will look to win over southern states after breaching opposition's citadels in east India in this election.
There is also speculation about changes in the BJP's organisation amid talks that its president Amit Shah may join the new government to be headed by Narendra Modi.
Though there has been no official word on the likely timing of the oath-taking ceremony, there is a view that it can be done at the earliest as the huge majority means the BJP can very much dictate its terms to its allies.
As per the latest Election Commission figures, the BJP has either won or is leading in 305 seats, up from 282 it had won in 2014, while the corresponding figure for its allies is about 50.
The 17th Lok Sabha will also have close to 45 members from parties, including YSR Congress, BJD and TRS, which are not members of the BJP-led National Democratic Alliance but have been receptive to its agenda.
Though the NDA does not have majority in Rajya Sabha, its tally has been steadily increasing.
