क्त्वि स्कन्दि-स्यन्दोः

Thus स्कन्त्वा, and स्यन्दित्वा or स्यन्त्वा, the इट् being added when स्यन्द is considered as having an indicatory ऊ in the dhatupatha. When इट् is added, क्त्वा is no longer कित् by virtue of the rule 1.2.18, and elision would not take place, for no rule of elision would apply in that case.,
