It is preferred that the article is created in MS Word using 12-point Times New Roman type throughout. Once an
article has been accepted the final version may be submitted in TeX / LaTeX also, together with the corresponding
PDF file. The title, numbered equations and tables, should be centered. Everything else must be aligned to the left
without any indent. A double space above and below all headings is required. If special characters (e.g. Chinese,
Cyrillic) other than Latin or Greek alphabets and common mathematical symbols are used, PDF files should be
supplied to indicate their placement. In fact a PDF file showing complete article with everything embedded as it
should appear in the print, must be supplied.
The main body of the article should be divided by appropriate numbered section and sub-section headings all in upper/lower bold type and aligned to the left. An Acknowledgment section may be included before the list of
references. Manuscripts must generally be organized in the following manner:
(i) Title (bold face) followed by author name(s) only [centered], (ii) Abstract and Key Words, (iii) Article Text,
(iv) Acknowledgments, (v) References, (vi) Appendices.
The abstract should be followed by three to seven keywords that would be useful in identifying it for reference
purposes.
Please avoid using any Footnotes. All references in the text must be cited by author surname and year, like
(Smith, 1993) or Smith (1985b). List all the cited references at the end of the article, in alphabetical order of the
surnames (writing initials first followed by the surnames), strictly in accordance with the following examples:

Conflict of interest most commonly arises from the source of funding, and therefore, the name(s) of funding agency must be mentioned in the cover letter. In case of no conflict of interest, please include the statement that “the authors declare that they have no conflict of interest”.
Introduction
Ganita Bhāratī, the Bulletin of the Indian Society for History of Mathematics, is devoted to publication of significant original articles in history of mathematics and related areas. It is our endeavor to be a global vehicle for dissemination of original research on topics in history of mathematics, as well expositions (in a form not currently available in literature) that would facilitate research and/or enhance awareness on
the topic of exposition, or of the subject on a broader scale. Ganita Bhāratī also publishes Book Reviews, Brief introductory comments on recent publications, Notes and News items on matters and current events of interest to the broad community involved with the study of history of mathematics, including scholars, students, as well as general enthusiasts of the subject.
This journal is in 38th year of publication and it is indexed/Abstracted in Zentralblatt MATH, Mathematical Review, Genomics(JournalSeek) etc.
Topics
History of mathematics of various periods, from ancient to modern
Subject Covered
Articles on a broad range of topics, all the way from mathematics from the ancient cultures around the world to historical aspects of modern mathematics are welcome.
