MS 555 is a Devanāgarī transcript of MS 554, which is a Malayālam palm-leaf manuscript. The transcript has been written with a pen in four bound notebooks filled with lined pages. The commentary is written in black, while the verses are written in red. It covers the whole of the Prakīrṇaprakāśa, albeit with significant gaps. The gaps in the text are represented by blank lines with interspersed dots. In K. A. Subramania Iyer's edition, a different transcript of MS 554 was used for editing the Dravyasamuddeśa.
