There are 8 steps
1. Formation of constituencies.
2. Filling of nomination.
3. Scrutiny of nominations.
4. Election campaign.
5. Polling personnel and the polling.
6. Counting of votes and result declaration.
7. Submission of account relating election expenses.
8. Election disputes.

ShobhitD: Third step means The Returning Officer scrutinizes the nomination papers very carefully. When someone is dissatisfied, he is officially stopped from contesting election for six years. The candidates can withdraw their nomination papers even after they have been found in order.

Every candidate standing for election to the Lok Sabha or to State Legislative Assembly has to make a security deposit of Rs. 10,000 arid Rs. 5,000 respectively.(remaining will be in other comment)
ShobhitD: In case the candidate belongs to any of the Scheduled Castes or Tribes, the security deposit is reduced by half.

The security deposit of such candidates as have obtained less than one-sixth of the total number of valid votes polled is forfeited.
