Gommatasara Karmakanda-767
The one who has attained the state of Anantgani-Vishuddhi, continuously increases the downward karmas (Adhapavattakarana) until the end of the Antomuhurta period. After that, he attains the state of A-puvva-karana (Apuvvakarana).
The number of A-puvva-karana is 4096, the number of Gachchha is 8, the number of Pariṇāma-viśeṣa is 16, and the number of Sankhyāta is 4.
The time of A-puvva-karana is only Antomuhurta. In this period, there are countless births and deaths, and the rate of increase is the same from the beginning to the end. There is no Anukrushti (reduction) in this period.

Therefore, there is both similarity and dissimilarity in the results of the beings who have attained A-puvva-karana in the first period. However, there is no similarity in the results of the beings who have attained A-puvva-karana in the second or subsequent periods. Therefore, the results of the beings who have attained A-puvva-karana in the second or subsequent periods are always dissimilar to each other and to the results of the beings in the previous periods. This is why it is called A-puvva-karana.
