Mīmāṃsā Sūtra / Adhyāya 9 / 9.2.56
नाधिकारकत्वात्
nādhikārakatvāt
The line
Not because of a compound: eligibility, and katva (कत्व).
Where it sits
In Mīmāṃsā (मीमांसा) Sūtra (सूत्र), adhyāya (अध्याय) 9. Ūha (ऊह): adapting mantras and details when they are transferred. The line is short. tadabhāve (तदभावे) from 9.2.55 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) + adhikāra-katvāt (अधिकार-कत्वात्)
