description "Tantrasangraha", composed by the renowned Kerala astronomer Nilakantha Somayaji (c. 1444-1545 AD) ranks along with "Aryabhatiya" of Aryabhata and "Siddhantasiromani" of Bhaskaracarya as one of the major works which significantly influenced further work on astronomy in India. One of the distinguishing features is the introduction of a major revision of the traditional Indian planetary model. Nilakantha arrived at a unified theory of planetary latitudes and a better formulation of the equation of centre for the interior planets (Mercury and Venus) than was previous
