  50. the passing out date on the provisional certificates is not mentioned for the students passing out from Utkal University (Odisha). NO student from Utkal University has a passing out date mentioned in his provisional certificate. Last time when i appeared for the Interview they asked me about it and i convinced them coz some other candidates from Utkal University were there and they had the same issue. i did MBA after that, hence i dont even have the CLC. I have the MBA, which is a PG program, certificate where the date is mentioned. Will there be any issues? help plz. :(
