The Pancainhäkävyas are the Raghuvamóa, the Kumārasambhava, the Kirätárjunlya, the Sigupālavadha and the Naigadha. Each of these works is represented by a large number of manuscripts and consequently a slight change has been adopted in cataloguing these works. One manuscript is described in detail and the rest have been given in a tabular form, which is self-explana. tury. Thus No. 2177 describes in detail a copy of the Raghuvamóa and the tabular statement begins with No. 2778 and continuos up to No. 2989. Of Mallinātha's coinmentary on the Raghuvamba there are a number of copies and as before, one of them (No. 2990) is described in detail and the rest are described in tabular form (Nos. 2991-3044).

Apart from Mallinātha's commentary there are certain other commentaries and they have been described in full.
