Commentary
The ई substitution for आ under sūtra घुमास्थागापाजहातिसां हलि 6.4.66 does not apply when the absolutive affix ल्यप् follows 1. मा 2. स्था 3. गा 4. पा 5. हा (जुहाति) 6. सा and 7. घु।
Thus प्रदाय, प्रधाय, प्रमाय, प्रस्थाय, प्रगाय, प्रपाय, प्रहाय and अवसाय ॥ The affix ल्यप् as the substitute of क्त्वा, is a कित् affix by 1.1.56.
