Commentary

After the verbs ह्वे 'to call', preceded by नि , सम् , उप and वि , the आत्मनेपद is used, even, when the fruit of the action does not accrue to the agent.
The verb ह्वेः 'to call' whether transitive or intransitive is Atmanepadi after the above prepositions. The condition of being Intransitive does not apply to this sutra, and from this sutra forward general rules of Atmanepada are treated of. As निह्वयते, संह्वयते, उपह्वयते ॥

The verb ह्वे is marked in the Dhatupatha with a ञ् and therefore, by sutra 72 of this Chapter, it will take the terminations of the Atmanepada when the direct fruit of the action accrues to the agent. But even when the direct fruit of the action does not accrue to the agent, the verb hve takes the terminations of the Atmanepada when preceded by the above prefixes.

Vart:- The verbs अस् 'to throw' and ऊह 'to note' take optionally Atmanepada affixes when compounded with upasargas. As निरस्यति—०ते 'he casts out,' समूहति—०ते 'he collects.'
