Literature related to Tattvartha has been published. This includes not only the publication of ancient texts but also a variety of literature such as critical, translational, revised, and analytical works.
The credit for completely publishing both the commentaries of Siddhasen and Haribhadra from ancient texts truly goes to Shri Sagar Anand Surishwar. He has also published a critical essay in Hindi, primarily discussing whether the author Umāsvāti was a Svetambara or a Digambara. The Gujarati translation of the original Tattvartha sutras was done by Shri Hiralal Kapadia, M.A., and the Gujarati translation with commentary of the first chapter of Tattvarthabhashya was published by Pundit Prabhudas Becharadas Parikh. The Hindi translation of Tattvartha, which is essentially a verbatim translation of my Gujarati commentary, was prepared and published by Shri Meghrajji Munot from Phalodi (Marwar). Two booklets entitled 'Tattvarthasutra-Jainagam Samnvay' have been published by the monk (later Acharya) Atmaramji Upadhyay, a resident of the location. One of these is in Hindi with meaning and the other is an Agama text without Hindi meaning.
The Gujarati Tattvartha commentary by Shri Ramjibhai Doshi was published from Songarh. Professor G. R. Jain's commentary on the fifth chapter of Tattvartha has been published in English from the perspective of modern science. The Tattvarthavritti authored by Acharya Shrutasagara and edited by Pundit Mahendrakumarji Nyayacharya, the Hindi translation of Tattvarthasutra by Pundit Lal Bahadur Shastri, and the Hindi commentary by Pundit Phoolchandji have been published from Banaras. The commentary Sukhbodhvrtti by Bhaskar Nand is published as the 84th book in the Sanskrit series of Oriental Library Publications, edited by Pundit Shantiraj Shastri. This commentary dates back to the 14th century. The explanation titled Tattvatrisutriprakashika, which is authored by Shri Vijayalavanyasuri and published as the 22nd gem of the Shri Vijaynemisuri Granthamala, pertains to the fifth chapter of the text.
