The following notes are from Ghātage's 1938 article on this text: even from the earliest times it appears, there was no agreement among the traditional writers about the form and the interpretation of the name of the work usually known as the Daśavaikālika Sūtra. Like many other works in the Ardha-Māgadhi canon there is no occasion to give the title either in the introductory or concluding portions of the text. References in other works and the comments upon it are also not unanimous. The Nandīsūtra uses "Dasaveyaliya." Bhadrabāhu, author of the oldest cty on the Nandi uses Dasakäliya (six times), Dasaveyaliya (twice) and where he attempts to explain the name he uses Dasakāliya. Jinadāsamahattara in the DasaveCu. uses Dasaveyaliya as does Haribhadra. Although other forms are found, these two authors always explain the name based on the form Dasaveyāliya. Only in the case of the Vanhidasão is "-dasa" in a title not linked to ten chapters. Here we have ten chapters plus two appendices, cūlikas. -veyaliya occurs only in Tandulaveyaliya, also in the ukkāliya section with the Dasaveyaliya, but there it means calculation (veyaliya = vicāra) of the number of rice grains and so cannot have any link to Dasaveyaliya. The Nijjutti makes three different attempts to give the meaning of the title. vikāla may mean the time of evening or an improper time. As to the word kāliya: "There is a method of dividing the canon into four Anuyogas and it is common to both the sects of the Jain community and as such it must be very old." Caranakaraṇānuyoga: canonical works on carana and rules of good conduct and karana or rules of begging food were called Kālikaśruta. The Nandi has the older classification into Anga and Angabahira. To Ghaļāge's mind, originally the work was called Daśakālika and not Daśavaikālika it thus meant: "ten chapters dealing with the rules of conduct and of begging food." (Ghatage, Dasave.study. 1938, p. 232–38).
