Surya Siddhanta of Varaha as given in his Panca Siddhanitka are almost the same as those of the Khandakhadyaka, it is clear that the old Surya Siddhanta was made up to date y Varaha by replacing the old constants in it by new ones from Aryabhata I's midnight system. A subsequent redactor of the Surya Siddhanta changed the constants as introduced by Varaha by following Bhrahmagupta's teachings in his Brahmasphuta teachings in his Brahmaspura Siddhanta and the Uttara Khandakhadyaka.
