Manuscript Features
This MS of 79 fols. is only a part of Trilocanadāsa's Kātantravṛttivivaraṇapañjikā commenting on Durgasiṃha's commentary on the first to the fourth pāda of the kṛdvṛtti, i. e. the section on primary suffixes (kṛt) of the Kātantra. It includes two additional fols., which have been micro-filmed first. These two fols., however, are the beginning portion of the sixth pāda of the kṛdvṛtti. This part of the text may have been a bit out of order already before the eyes of the copyist, or he himself has confused it, since now the commentary runs thus: Kā. 4.6.1; 4.6.3; 4.6.5; 4.6.2. Fol. 1r is inscribed trilocanadāsaḥ ||. These two fols. are slightly damaged, and some akṣaras are illegible because the writing is partly rubbed off.
Apart from the fragment just described, the MS has the following features:
The writing of some fols. is partly rubbed off, to wit: 4v; 5r; 16v; 17r; 25v; 26r; 49v; 63v; 74r; 79r/v.
In two places (fol. 68r and 78r) lacunae have been left, the scribe having marked a few missing akṣaras by using horizontal strokes.
Fol. 1r is inscribed ❖ kṛtapuṭhi ||.
The colophon gives the date of copying as lakṣmaṇa saṃvat 156.
A short description of this MS is given in BSP, Vol. VI, p. 14, viṣayāṅka 38.
