Mathematics is about problem-solving, logical thinking, and creativity.
The competition will be held on the 26 April 2026
Age limit for participation is from 17 to 32 years old.
We are a charitable organization and don’t work for a profit. Our only aim is to provide a platform for Mauritians to showcase their hidden talents.
The Srinivasa Ramanujan Foundation operates since 10 years in Mauritius, offering a platform for Mauritians to showcase their hidden talents.
The objective of the competition is to foster mathematical aptitude among the younger generation in Mauritius. Named after the legendary mathematician Srinivasa Ramanujan, this challenge inspires participants to explore the beauty of mathematics and test their abilities at a national level.
The Srinivasa Ramanujan Maths Challenge is a national-level mathematics competition designed to enhance participants’ logical reasoning, problem-solving, and analytical skills. It is open to participants from 17 to 32 years old and encourages them to apply math beyond textbooks. The competition also honors the legacy of Ramanujan, who made extraordinary contributions to number theory and mathematical analysis.
The Ramanujam National Maths Challenge is more than just an exam, it’s a celebration of mathematical brilliance and creativity. For students, it is a platform to explore mathematics beyond textbooks. For parents, it’s an opportunity to nurture a love for problem-solving in their children.
If your child enjoys puzzles, logical reasoning, and challenges, then RNMC is the perfect competition to unlock their potential.
There are Two Categories of Rewards at the National Level.
General – calculated among all candidates appearing in the competition.
By category – It is calculated separately for each individual Level.
Winners are usually awarded with:
This annual mathematics challenge is open to participants aged between 17 -32 years old and is organised into age-appropriate groups. The problems are designed to test deep understanding, creativity, and abstract mathematical reasoning rather than routine techniques, encouraging participants to think independently and explore advanced mathematical ideas.
Srinivasa Ramanujan (1887–1920) stands among the most extraordinary mathematical minds in history. Largely self-taught and working in isolation during his early years, he developed groundbreaking ideas that would later reshape entire fields of mathematics.
With an intuitive and unconventional approach, Ramanujan made profound contributions to number theory, mathematical analysis, infinite series, and continued fractions. His work was not only innovative but often far ahead of its time—introducing concepts such as the Ramanujan prime, the Ramanujan theta function, and remarkable results on continued fractions and infinite series, which continue to influence modern mathematical research.
“The competition also honors the legacy of Ramanujan, who made extraordinary contributions to number theory and mathematical analysis.”
The Ramanujan Challenge 2026 is not just a competition — it is a celebration of thinking, innovation, and the limitless potential of young students.

The Ramanujan Mathematics Challenge is an annual national-level online mathematics competition organized by Youthisthan Foundation to nurture analytical thinking, logical reasoning, and mathematical excellence among students across India. Inspired by the genius of Srinivasa Ramanujan, the challenge aims to identify young talent and build a strong youth intellectual movement in mathematics.
The Ramanujan Mathematics Challenge is open to all school-going students across India, irrespective of board or medium of instruction. Students from primary, middle, and secondary classes can participate according to their respective grade categories and compete at a national level.
No, we do not provide any separate study material or book for The Ramanujan Mathematics Challenge.
Participants are advised to prepare based on the official syllabus provided on the website and use their regular school textbooks and reference materials for practice.
For preparing for The Ramanujan Mathematics Challenge 2026, it is recommended that participants study NCERT mathematics books for classes 1 to 12, which are aligned with the foundational concepts required for the competition. NCERT books can be downloaded for free from the official NCERT website.
