Commentary
These two - शतृ and शानच् are called सत्.
These participial affixes get collectively this name; and as such they are not limited by the conditions enumerated above; so that they replace not only the affixes of the Present tense but sometimes of Future also 3.3.14, as well as other tenses. Thus ब्राह्मणस्य कुर्वन्, करिष्यन्, कुर्वाणः, करिष्यमाणः ।
The word सत् occurs in sutra 2.2.11 &c.
