Professor Thakare Gaurav Sanstha (PTGS) is a Pune-based trust founded in 2021 with a deep commitment to recognize the academic excellence and ethical scholarship. Inspired by the belief that recognition is a powerful catalyst for progress, PTGS is dedicated to celebrating intellectual contributions that shape the future of knowledge.
Corpus fund was created on the occasion of the celebration of 75th years of age of Prof. N K Thakare in 2013. The contributions were mainly made by the students, researchers & lovers of Mathematics.
At the core of its initiatives is the Ganit Ratna Award—a national honour instituted to acknowledge original and impactful contributions in the field of mathematics. More than an award, it is a tribute to the silent dedication of scholars and a platform to elevate Indian mathematical talent to the global stage.
PTGS is guided by a clear vision: to build an ecosystem where thoughtful, pioneering research (carried out in India) is identified, celebrated, and encouraged. Rooted in Indian intellectual traditions and aligned with international standards, the Sanstha collaborates with leading academicians and institutions to foster a culture of depth, rigour, and integrity in research.
Through the Ganit Ratna Award and other academic initiatives, PTGS aspires to create lasting impact—one that not only honours excellence but also inspires future generations to pursue mathematics with purpose and passion.
