Commentary
The acute accent is on the first syllable of युष्मद् and अस्मद् in the Genitive Singular.
This applies when the forms are मम and तव, and not मे and ते ॥ Thus म꣡म स्वम्, त꣡व स्वम् ॥ The word युष्मद् and अस्मद् are derived from युष and अस by adding the affix मदिक् (Un I.139) युष्मद् + ङस् = युष्मद् + अश् 7.1.27 = तव अट् + अश् 6.2.96 = तव꣡ + अ꣡श् 7.2.90 = तव 6.1.97. Here by 8.2.5, व would have been udatta, the present sutra makes त udatta. So also with मम ॥
