He is best known and most celebrated for his vast poetic production in Konkani.
Pandit also produced a significant body of work in Portuguese after the Liberation of Goa in 1961, and also wrote in Marathi.
Much of his output was written in a neo-realist style demonstrating a marked concern for the downtrodden sections of Goan society.
Among his most noted achievements are the publication of five books of poetry on one day (26 January 1963) and a prize from the Sahitya Akademi for his 1975 Dariā Gāzotā.
