In the NCC, this text is said to contain 27 ślokas. This MS has three introductory verses and 15 verses explaining the Śivasūtras.

Manuscript Features
In the top of the left-hand margin of each verso the abbreviation kā °kā ° has been written. Likewise, in the bottom of the right-hand margin of each verso, above the foliation, the word rāmaḥ has been written.
The index card of the NAK bears the title “Kāśikāvṛtticaturdaśasūtrārthakārikā”, which is misleading in as far as there is no other connection to the Kāśikāvṛtti but for the Śivasūtra-s being taught and explained there (as in any other commentary on Pāṇini’s grammar).
