No prior complete English translation of this text has been found.
Searches in the UNESCO Index Translationum, Open Library, and Google Books for English translations of Ranganatha's commentary (Gudhartaprakashaka) on the Surya Siddhanta returned no results. While the root verses of the Surya Siddhanta were translated into English in the 19th century (notably by Ebenezer Burgess in 1860 and Bapu Deva Sastri in 1861), these works focus on the primary astronomical text rather than providing a complete translation of Ranganatha's specific 1603 commentary. No English translation of the modern commentary by Baladeva Prasad Mishra was identified.
