In this paper we present the time, the place and the process of discovery of zero. 3500 B.C. can be fixed up as a time, the extreme limit, when Indus Valley civilization was at its peak. With reference to the time of vedic civilization opinions of different scholars are sharply divided. The reason they produce is that according to Bible, the creation of this world was placed only 8500 years back and only during this period the whole development of human history must have happened. Today, however, archaeologists and geologists talk about crores of years.
