Even though he has retired from IIT Madras, I would like to name V. Balakrishnan sir from the Physics Department as the answer to this question. He is one of the most respected faculty members of all time at IIT Madras. 

Sir’s knowledge of Physics is unparalleled. It is absolutely stunning how he used to link the seemingly disparate aspects of the natural world. You can watch his lectures on Classical Mechanics on NPTEL and Youtube. Sir acknowledged and answered the queries of all his students. Not only that, he took those simple questions and slightly modified them, thus leading his students to understand deep and profound concepts. 

Sir’s classes ignited new thoughts in his students’ minds, and led them to those answers which they never realized they needed. No one wanted to miss any of his classes, which speaks volumes about his teaching.

My brother went to IIT Madras and according to him, all professors are intellectual powerhouses. Here are some of his personal favorite professors in no particular order:

  1. Dr. Pramod S Mehta- IC Engines Lab: Dr. Mehta’s classes are adorning. He teaches everything from the basics and in an elementary manner leaving no room for doubts. Everyone is at the same level of learning in his classes. He makes the classes engaging and interactive. His quizzes and assignments are intriguing and interesting.
  2. Dr. A Ramesh- IC Engines Lab: His classes are also very engaging. He teaches everything in simple terms making it easy to grasp. Once you attend his classes, you hardly need to revise those topics.
  3. Dr. Parag Ravindran- Machine Design Section: A very humble and polite teacher who teaches some of the hardest subjects in a very easy and simple way. He pays a lot of attention to achieving perfection in his subjects.
  4. Dr. V Raghu Prakash- Machine Design Section: You will be amazed by his knowledge regarding anything and everything. Everything was just at his fingertips.
  5. Dr. Ratna Kumar Annabatulla- Machine Design Section: Always energetic. He works hard so that his students understand his subject well. He teaches everything from the basics without assuming that students have any kind of knowledge regarding it.
  6. Dr. Seshadri Sekhar- Machine Learning Section: A very kind-hearted professor who cares for everyone. He is students’ favorite because of his helpful nature and his interactive classes.
  7. Dr. Narasimhan Swaminathan: He is one of the youngest professors but, one of the best when it comes to teaching. He will make you ponder upon anything that he teaches.
  8. Dr. S P Venkateshan: He is an emeritus professor. His love for mathematics is beyond description. His classes help in a great way in imparting and establishing concepts.

Hope this helps.
