The polling for four positions of Delhi University Students' Union (DUSU) ended on Thursday, amid allegations of EVM malfunctioning.
The results will be declared on Friday.
There were 16 candidates in the fray and 52 polling centres were set up. Over 1.3 lakh students were eligible to cast their vote.

Outside the colleges and booths, party workers were making last-minute efforts to woo voters and some were also engaging in verbal duel with opposition candidates.
Former DUSU office-bearers from ABVP and NSUI were seen walking through the North campus to gauge the mood of the voters.
Congress-affiliated National Students' Union of India (NSUI) claimed its joint secretary candidate Abhishek Chaprana was refused entry to polling booths in Dyal Singh College in South Delhi. The student outfit also claimed that Chaprana was "illegally detained".
The police said Chaprana was canvassing for votes outside the college which was not allowed. When he was asked not to do it, he "misbehaved" with policemen and had to be detained, they said.
The outfit also alleged that an EVM malfunctioned at a college.
Ruchi Gupta, NSUI national in-charge tweeted, "Again, in Aryabhatt college, EVM is malfunctioning as usual AGAINST NSUI. When ballot is pressed for NSUI candidate, EVM does not light up to indicate registration of vote. Our rep is getting more details. "
