The Madras edition is based on the following MSS (The details of the MSS have not been given in any of the published works on SKA. Based on the Descriptive Catalogues on SKt MSS in different libraries, these. details have been compiled by the present author and are separately given at the end of this article) (i) R. No. 3279 (ii) R. No. 4179 (iii) No. 698 (iv) a transcript of the SKA sutras, prepared from the original palm leaf Ms (v) a fragment of the commentary of Dandanatha, the last two supplied to the editor by his friend M. Ramakrishnakavi. The Madras edition suffers from a lot of errors mostly misprints. Some of the errors have arisen due to limitations of the editor in understanding Bhoja sūtras.
