Really? I was not aware of such a restriction. This may be an India thing. In the US exit polls can and do ask voters who they voted for. See: http://www.cnn.com/ELECTION/2008/results/polls.main/how.to.read.html Wikipedia also seems to concur: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exit_poll "Unlike an opinion poll, which asks whom the voter plans to vote for or some similar formulation, an exit poll asks whom the voter actually voted for."
