First-time MLAs
At least 61 MLAs elected in 2026 won a Tamil Nadu Assembly seat for the first time; 27 had won before.
Counted only where the full Assembly record is established (88 of 233 MLAs): the MLA's profile lists every win, checked against the Election Commission's 2011, 2016 and 2021 winners. An MLA whose name matches an earlier winner elsewhere is left out until it is settled. For the other 145, the record is not established, so the true number of first-timers may be higher.
