In the history of science in India, Aryabhata I (born A.D.476), who made notable contributions to the development of astronomy and mathematics, has a distinct place. In his, Aryabhatiya he remodelled the prevalent system of Indian astronomy on a scientific basis, provided it with modified parameters, new tools and techniques, and more accurate methods of calculation. A large number of expositions and works based on the Aryabhatiya came to be composed in later times, leading to the evolution of the Aryabhatan School of astronomy and mathematics. The present volume comprises a critical edition of the Aryabhatiya with the elucidative commentary of Suryadeva Yajvan (b. 1191), based on original palmleaf manuscipts. An informative Introduction and several Appendices have been added to facilitate the study of the book by modern students of mathematics and astronomy.
