About Srinivasa Ramanujan
 1887 born, Srinivasa Ramanujan was a splendid Indian
mathematician who gets credited even today for his
commitments in the field of maths. Srinivasa Ramanujan
mathematician was an astoundingly brilliant child who might
dominate different kids of his age in maths. He belonged from
Tamil Nadu, where his family was not well enough to support
his passion for Mathematics.
 George S. Carr’s book, ‘Synopsis of elementary results in pure
mathematics, became his inspiration to follow his passion.
Today, Ramanujan mathematician, remembered for inventions
of important equations, the infinite series of π, and game
theory. The year 1914 was the defining moment in the striving
life of the virtuoso mathematician. G.H.Hardy, the great
mathematician, invited him to Cambridge

About Bhaskara I
Bhaskara, the 7th-century famous Indian mathematician, was born in c.600 and died in
CE 680. He is one of the ancient Indian mathematicians who is known for his
contribution to maths. Bhaskara mathematician is famous for inventing the Hindu
decimal system. This Aryabhata follower wrote a critique, ‘Aryabhatiyabhasya’ in CE
629, which is considered the oldest known Sanskrit language work in the mathematics
& astronomy field. In addition, his other works include Mahabhaskariya and
Laghubhāskarīya.
Mahabhaskariya comprises 8 chapters, dwelling on mathematical astronomy. The book
discusses the relationship between cosine and sine and gives the sin x approximation
formula. The book likewise examines about longitudes of the planets, conjunctions of
the planets with one another and with eclipses of the sun & the moon, shining stars,
the lunar crescent, risings and settings. Furthermore, the book explains the
relationship between the sine of a point >90° >180° or >270° to the sine of a point
<90°.

About Aryabhatta
476-550 CE, the golden period of India in which Aryabhatta, the
scientist, astronomer and mathematician, lived. Aryabhatta,
Indian mathematician’s contributions include the discovery of the
spherical shape of the earth, the number of days in 1 year and
notable works are Aryabhatasiddhanta and Aryabhatiya. The
former work is lost, and Aryabhatiya has three sections. These
sections are:
Ganita (Mathematics): This section has the names of the first 10
decimal places and provides algorithms for finding cube and
square roots through decimals. In this second, he noticed the
second-order sine difference and sine numbers are proportional.
Aryabhatta is known for involving one of the two strategies for
making the table of sines by utilizing the Pythagorean hypothesis.
Kala-kriya (Time Calculations): Aryabhata examines cosmology
like planetary movements, meanings of different units of time so

11. z
About Brahmagupta
 7th-century Rajasthan astronomer and mathematician,
Brahmagupta is famous for his work Brāhmasphuṭasiddhānta.’
The book is related to the use of 0 as a number in calculations.
A large portion of his works was in the Sanskrit language.
Brahmagupta, mathematician of Ancient India, also known as
Bhillamalacarya, is recognized for his contribution to
Arithematics, Trigonometry (Sine Table and Interpolation
formula), and solutions to general linear equation,
Brahmagupta’s Theorem and Brahmagupta’s Formula.
Brahmagupta couldn’t finish the utilization of 0 in calculations
with respect to division; however, he offered calculations, for
example, (1 + 0 = 1; 1 – 0 = 1; and 1 x 0 =0), for utilizing the
digit 0. The reason why he is known as the best mathematician
in the world is the discovery of negative numbers and their
calculations. Further, the establishment of √10 (3.162277) by
Brahmagupta gave new dimensions to trigonometry and
geometry.

5. P.C. Mahalanobis

13. z About P.C. Mahalanobis
In the list of the famous Indian mathematicians, P.C.Mahalanobis is
one of them. In 1893, he was born in Kolkata. Mahalanobis
completed his graduation from Presidency College in Physics and
went to Cambridge for higher education in Physics and Mathematics.
He is known as a Mathematician, Scientist and Statistician, and also
an Indian Father of Statistics. In the year 1913, he was one of the
people who contributed to the foundation of Indian Statistical
Institute (ISI) in India. His contribution to the forming of Planning
Commission of India is unquestionable, and in 1926, he laid the
establishment of Hirakund Dam in Odisha on Mahanadi river. One of
his best-known works is D2-statistic or Mahalanobis Distance. This
distance is the measurement proportion of correlation between two
distinct data sets.

About Satyendra Nath Bose
S.N.Bose, famously known for Bose-Einstein Condensate, is among the top 10
mathematicians of India. Satyendra Nath Bose was an Indian mathematician and
physicist who worked with Albert Einstein on the Bose-Einstein Condensate project.
Among the Indian mathematicians’ names, Bose is one such who was felicitated with
Padma Vibhushan. Bose is also referred to as the ‘Father of the God Particles’ for his
contribution to Boson particle. Boson particle is also known as the God particle.
The best mathematician in India, S.N.Bose was born in Kolkata in 1894 and
completed his graduation and post-graduation, majoring in mathematics. From his
school day, he outperformed every year till his M.Sc. In 1915, he completed his
master’s and decided to pursue higher education in 1917. During this tenure, Bose
and his batchmate started translating French and German works of Albert Einstein,
after getting the green flag from Einstein. Untill 1924, Planck’s Law was not proved,
but this year, Bose published a paper deriving Planck’s Theory: quantum radiation
law without referring to any classical physics theories.

7. D R Kaprekar

17. z
About D R Kaprekar
 In 1905, famous with the name ‘Ganitananda’, a future Indian
mathematician was born; he was Dattathreya Ramchandra
Kaprekar. In 1927, he won the Wrangler R. P. Paranjpe
Mathematical Prize for his notable work in the field of
mathematics. After graduating from the University of Mumbai
in 1929, he started teaching in Nashik school. During his
period of imparting lessons at a school, Kaprekar persistently
published covering various topics like magic squares, recurring
decimals and integers having special properties. The number
6174 is called Kaprekar Constant and is named after him.
Kaprekar described numerous classes of natural numbers.

8. Shakuntala
Devi

19. z
About Shakuntala Devi
 When asked for any female mathematicians of India, Shakuntala Devi
is one name that is always on the list of the top 10 Indian
mathematicians. A charismatic lady from India is recognized for her
exceptional calculating speed. For this reason, she got the title of the
‘human computer.’ She was born in 1929 in Banglore. Her journey was
a bit different from other famous Indian mathematicians. Shakuntala
Devi, a mathematician, started her journey from memorizing cards for
the show in the circuses to getting her name into the Guinness Book of
World Record.
 Her father acknowledged her talent, and later the entire world shouted
out loud for her accomplishments. This Indian mathematician’s
biography inspires and elates the motivation of everyone who thrives
to do wonders as a mathematician.

21. z About Mahavira
In the list of Indian mathematicians, 9th-century mathematician,
Mahavira is the one who is known for setting mathematics and
astrology apart. He was mainly famous in the Southern region of
India, and his work helped many other South Indian
mathematicians to refer. He was the first Indian mathematician in
the world who explained the fact that square roots don’t exist in
the case of negative numbers. His work ‘Ganitasarasangraha’
includes various mathematical procedures. These vary from basic
operations to miscellaneous problems of linear and quadratic
equations, mixed problems, proportionality-based rule of 3,
geometric calculations and reduction of fractions.
Mahavira mathematician is also known for his contribution to
naming the concepts of a semicircle, circle, isosceles triangle,
rhombus and equilateral triangle
