Full reading

लुटः डा-रौ-रसः
As a rewrite rule (sketch from case endings)
लुटः → डा- रौ- रसः

Replace luṭaḥ prathamasya with ḍā-rau-rasaḥ. Inherited words (anuvṛtti) may add further conditions.

Commentary

डा , रौ and रस् are substituted respectively in the room of the three-affixes of the 3rd Person of लुट् (First Future), both in the परस्मैपद and आत्मनेपद।
Thus in the Parasmaipada कर्ता 'he will do,' कर्तारौ 'they two will do;' कर्तारः 'they will do.' So also in the Atmanepada we have अध्येता, अध्येतारौ, अध्येतारः ।

Why do we say 'in the 3rd person'? Observe श्वः कर्तासि । श्वोऽध्येतासे ॥
