He is survived by his two daughters, Girija and Sudha.

S. Venkataramanan passes away. Arguably the best RBI governor. Crisis manger whose decisive actions helped India to tide the balance of payments crisis in the late 1980s and early 1990s. That was a time when India was scraping the bottom of FE reserves. RIP pic.twitter.com/GsxiQBfzVF
