Political, market and door-to-door fieldwork for the city and its rural tehsils

Bharat Survey is a survey company in Indore for campaign teams, brands, researchers and civic bodies that need field data from the city's 85 municipal wards and the villages of Sanwer, Depalpur and Mhow. Field teams are deployed per project, and every interview is captured on our offline Android app with a GPS point, a timestamp and a supervisor check, so you see progress daily instead of at the end.

Political research

Urban and rural voters are not one sample

The five Indore city seats are dense and mostly urban, while Sanwer and Depalpur are largely rural and Mhow sits in a different Lok Sabha seat, Dhar. As a political survey company in Indore we set quotas per segment so the dense city seats do not drown out village responses.

Questionnaires cover issue salience, awareness of candidates and satisfaction with civic services. We report findings; we do not promise outcomes or work for a side's messaging.

  • Segment-level quotas
  • Age and gender balance per booth cluster
  • Neutral, tested wording

    Pilot in one ward and one village

    A pilot in a city ward such as a Juni Indore neighbourhood and a Sanwer village checks timing, language and refusals before full rollout.

Election work

Indore votes in three kinds of contests: municipal corporation elections across 85 wards, assembly elections in nine segments and the Lok Sabha. An election survey agency in Indore has to match its sampling frame to the contest, because a ward-level civic poll and an assembly tracker need different maps.

Booth-level work without voter personal data

Campaign teams can pair research with our booth management app Indore volunteers use to log booth tasks, turnout reminders and issues. The app does not import voter rolls or track individual voters.

Our view

Consumer and trade research

Indore is the commercial hub of the Malwa region, which makes it useful for testing products before a wider Madhya Pradesh rollout.

FAQ

Straight answers to the questions people ask most about this topic.

Do you cover Mhow and the rural tehsils, or only Indore city?

Both. Projects can include Dr. Ambedkar Nagar-Mhow, Sanwer, Depalpur and Rau along with the city seats. Mhow votes in the Dhar Lok Sabha seat, so for parliamentary work we treat it separately from the Indore seat's eight segments.

Which languages do interviewers use in Indore?

Hindi for most interviews, with Malwi-speaking interviewers for rural clusters. Census 2011 also records Marathi, Urdu and Sindhi speakers in the district, and we can add interviewers for those communities when the sample needs them.

Can you run a ward-level civic survey across all IMC zones?

Yes. We split the sample across the 19 zones and 85 wards so outer wards are not missed, and each record carries a ward code, GPS point and timestamp that the dashboard can filter.

Do you have an office in Indore?

No local office is claimed. Field teams are deployed for each Indore project, trained on that questionnaire and supervised through the app and back-checks.

How quickly can a survey start in Indore?

After the questionnaire is final, a pilot usually comes first, then full fieldwork. Timing depends on sample size and segments, so we share a day-by-day plan with the proposal rather than a fixed promise.
