Commentary
When the परस्मैपद affixes of the Potential follow, then यासुट् acutely accented, is their augment and the termination is regarded as having an indicatory ङ्।
This debars सीयुट्; the उट् of यासुट् is indicatory; the real augment is यास्. All augments being anudatta, the present sutra therefore especially uses the word udatta to show that this augment is an exception to the general rule. Though लिङ् has an indicatory ङ्, and therefore by the rule 1.1.56, its substitutes would also be regarded as having an indicatory ङ्, the repetition of the word ङित् in this sutra shows the existence of the paribhasha "that the ङ् belonging to ल does not influence its substitutes;" in other words, the substitutes of लङ्, लिङ्, लुङ् and लृङ् are not to be regarded as having an indicatory ङ् (लकाराश्रयङित्वमादेशानां न भवति). In the Potential, the स् of यासुट् is elided by 7.2.79. So we get the forms कुर्यात्, कुर्याताम्, and by applying 3.4.108 and 6.1.96, कुर्युस् । For the Benedictive लिङ् the following sutra applies.
