We present updated results of the Baksan Underground Scintillator Telescope in search for a signal from dark matter particles annihilating in the center of the Sun. Based on the performance of the Baksan telescope measuring upward through-going muons with energy larger 1 GeV, we confirm the absence of observable excess in arrival directions towards the Sun relatively the expectations from neutrinos of atmospheric origin for 24.12 years of live time. We conclude that the 90% C.L. upper limits on elastic scattering cross sections of dark matter WIMP (Weakly Interactive Massive Particle) off proton are comparable with correspondent limits of other operating neutrino telescopes. The best value of the limit is 3×10−4 picobarn in spin-dependent (SD) interaction of WIMP on proton for mass range about 100÷200 GeV.
