This manuscript, held at the Asiatic Society in Kolkata, extends from the beginning of the Jātisamuddeśa to the end of the Kriyāsamuddeśa. It is very closely correlated with the manuscript from Delhi University Library (D) — it incorporates a marginal gloss from D, āryā, into the body of the main text. Not much is known with regards to the provenance of the manuscript, which forms part of the Government Collection ― Haraprasāda Shāstrī, in the preface to the first volume of his manuscript catalogue, writes that the collection began under the order of Lord Lawrence's Government in 1808 (III).
