The line
Not a compound: avṛtti (अवृत्ति), dharma, a property, and tvāta (त्वात).
Where it sits
In Mīmāṃsā (मीमांसा) Sūtra (सूत्र), adhyāya (अध्याय) 10. Bādha (बाध): when a transferred detail is excluded. The line is short. dhūryeṣv (धूर्येष्व्) from 10.5.24 is still in force. A sūtra (सूत्र) leaves a word out when the line before still holds it. That carrying is anuvṛtti (अनुवृत्ति).
Split: na (न) + avṛtti-dharma-tvāta (अवृत्ति-धर्म-त्वात)
