The decision to list him as a global terrorist was taken in the world body's sanctions committee that held a crucial meeting today in which China lifted its hold on the proposal to blacklist him.
A UNSC designation will now subject Azhar to an assets freeze, travel ban and an arms embargo.
Calling it a big diplomatic victory, Union minister Prakash Javadekar said "Pakistan now stands exposed".
