Where it sits
In Mīmāṃsā (मीमांसा) Sūtra (सूत्र), adhyāya (अध्याय) 10. Bādha (बाध): when a transferred detail is excluded. The line is short. grahāṇāñ (ग्रहाणाञ्) from 10.1.27 is still in force. A sūtra (सूत्र) leaves a word out when the line before still holds it. That carrying is anuvṛtti (अनुवृत्ति).
Split: grahā-bhāve (ग्रहा-भावे) + ca (च) + tad-vacanam (तद्-वचनम्)
