The Ms. is partly repaired and worn out. The last folio is torn, so the exact end of the work cannot be made out from the Ms. It has a table of contents in 8 folios at the beginning.

अथ संवत्सरप्रतिपदमारभ्य तिथिनिर्णयस्तत्कृत्यं च निरूप्यते। तत्र मीनसंक्रान्तौ पश्चात् षोडशघटिकाः पुण्यकालः। रात्रौ तु निशीथात् प्राक् परतश्च संक्रमे पूर्वोत्तरदिनाद्धं पुण्यं, निशीथे तु दिनद्वये पुण्यमिति सामान्यनिर्णयादवज्ञयम् । अथ तिथिनिर्णयः।
