Let me take some personal pleasure in post morteming my prelection analysis with post-election results.

District wise analysisAdilabad: 10 assembly segments. Congress gave a fight in 4 or 5 segments. May win a few of those.>> Actual result: Congress won in 1.

Nizamabad: 9 assembly segments. Congress gave a fight in 4. Only Nizamabad looks promising. Rest are doubtful.>> Actual result: Congress won in 1

One independent (K. K. Mahendar Reddy) gave a tough fight to KTR (son of KCR) in Siricilla.>> Actual result: KK gave an extreme fight and lost only by 171 votes
He has 50% chances. However, Congress may win one or both MP seats here - surprisingly (Peddapalli and Karimnagar)>> Actual result: Congress really won both the MP seats

Medak: 10 assembly segments.
Congress will win 6 or 7 segments. Vijayasanthi might loose Medak MP seat.>> Actual result: Congress won 8 seats. Vijayasanthi barely won by 6000 votes - courtesy Harish Rao's Siddipet.

Congress 6 to 8.Rajagopal has only 35% chance of winning MP.>> Actual: Congress won 6 and Rajagopal won with slim margin.

Kurnool: 14. Congress 9 or 10.>> Actual: 8Anantapur: 14. Congress 10 or 11. Paritala Sunitha faces a tough fight - win or loose..will be within 5K. JC Diwakar Reddy also facing a very tough fight. His chances are also 50%.>> Congress - 8. JC won. Paritala sunitha won as I said with 1000 votes.Chittoor: 14. Congress 10.>> Actual - 8.

Summary: -
In Rayalaseema, Nellore and Prakasam, Congress will sweep the election.
In Guntur and Krishna, TDP will give a reasonable fight.
In East Godavari, PRP will challenge congress.
In West Godavari, the fight will be between Congress and PRP in half the constituencies and between Congress and TDP in half the constituencies.
In Krishna and Guntur, the Kapu vote split will give TDP a few seats. Overall, I predict Congress to comfortably cross the 148 mark and will land somewhere between 160 and 170. Don't be surprised if Congress gets much higher seats. Cash Transfer Scheme (2,000 per month) did not seem to work in a major fashion. It may have a very negligible effect.

>> Overall I said somewhere between 160 and 170 - Missed the range by 3 constituencies. NOT BAD AT ALL I PRESUME.
