386 Editions a and b of the *Bhelasamhitā* read Nagnajit, but ed. c has Nagnajit. Editions a and b call him svarṇamārgada, which made G. Hāldār (Vṛddhatrayī 10) regard him as a founder of rasaśāstra; ed. c reads svargamārgada (see on these readings: R. Śāstrī, 1977: 404–405). P.V. Sharma (1992a: 91) assumes that Nagnajit was Bhela’s patron.
