Madhavayajvamisra is most probably the same person who wrote a commentary on the Setubandha as well as on the Arthaśāstra; see Handiqui (1976: 89-92). The MSS of these commentaries, like those of his commentary on the Sattasaf, are restricted to, or hail from, Kerala.
The Chāyā found after the Prākrit text seems to have been added only later. It generally has the same lacunae as the text. Furthermore, where the text is lost completely, no Chāyā is found, while in some cases at least the commentary has been preserved.
Ma Madras, Government Oriental Manuscripts Library, no. 3378.. Ma is a Devanāgarf transcript of an original palmleaf MS written in the Malayā] am script. It consists of two parts of which the pages have been numbered separately: 1-11 and 1-225. The main, second, part contains the Gāthās from 11 up to and including 474 of the Third South-Indian recension. The text is accompanied by the Sanskrit commentary of Madhavayajvamiśra.
