Offered postdoctoral fellowships by Geoffrey Wilkinson at Imperial College London and by Wilkinson's student F. Albert Cotton at MIT, Chakravorty joined Cotton's research group in late September 1961, in which he researched solution stability constants and structures of 3D metal complexes of imidazole derivatives. The following year, upon the suggestion of Cotton, he moved to Harvard for a second postdoc with Cotton's student Richard H. Holm; as Holm's only postdoc, he worked on stereo-labile nickel complexes. In December 1964, he joined the faculty of the Indian Institute of Technology Kanpur, where he and his research group studied synthetic and stereochemical problems of new types of complexes, and were soon noted for specializing in redox phenomena and oxidation-state manipulation. Eventually appointed head of chemistry at IIT Kanpur, Chakravorty joined the Indian Association for the Cultivation of Science (IACS) in Kolkata as head of inorganic chemistry in June 1977. Over the following three decades, beginning with Akhil Ranjan Chakravarty, he guided 58 doctoral students, including after his formal retirement from IACS as an emeritus professor in 2000; his last doctoral student submitted his dissertation in 2006. Chakravorty has published over 300 research papers, 20 review articles and several chapters.
