Aryabhata remains one of the most extraordinary figures in the history of Indian mathematics. The principles that he formulated characterise the Great Early Tradition of Indian mathematics. Aryabhaṭa was the first major mathematician-astronomer since antiquity. His work marks the end of primitive steps and the beginning of fast and competent algebraic methods. Though very little is known of his life, the Aryabhatiya is a landmark in Indian intellectual history. This treatise, in two distinct parts, one dealing with mathematics and the other with astronomy, presents a concise survey of the field as it was known. Within the brief space, Aryabhata manages to introduce original work. In this paper, Aryabhatta and his contribution to Indian Mathematics have been discussed.
