Manuscript Features
On the exp. 10 is written:arupallināmakakarṇāṭakanirmitaṃ laṃpākatilakaṃ. laṃpākastu padmanābhena nirmitaḥ ❁. but, the colophon declares the author of the commentary is Padmanābha, and on the beginning of the commentary says as arupallyupanāmako tha karṇāṭakamukhyo jña. So it seems the Arupalli may be the nickname of the author Padmanābha.
