Born in Mumbai, India, Samant received his diploma from the Sir J.J. School of Art in 1952, where he had studied under S.B. Palsikar. That year he joined the Progressive Artists Group. Extended periods abroad—1957–58 in Rome and travel in Europe and Egypt, 1959–64 in New York City—preceded his leaving Mumbai permanently for New York in 1968, where he lived until his death in 2004.
