Candidates have been waiting for over 24 hours now for the PGI Chandigarh results. The computer based test for MD/MS courses was held on November 30, 2019.

As per the official prospectus, the date of declaration of result ought to have been December 6, 2019. While there is no explanation from the official administration about the delay, there seems to be a technical issue on the website.
The official website of PGI Chandigarh is pgimer.edu.in.

It is probable, that this error is the reason behind the delay in PGIMER 2020 result.
As soon as the result is available, it can be checked from pgimer.edu.in. Result notification will be provided under the section titled information for candidates. There will be lists of candidates who are called for counselling, and another list for others.
