But a more popular *karaṇa* in West and Northwest India is the Karaṇakutūhala¹⁴⁶ composed by Bhāskara in the Sahyādri in accordance with the Brāhmapakṣa; its epoch is 23 February 1183. There are commentaries composed by Ekanātha¹⁴⁷ (Brahmatulyabhāṣya) at Mahāṇḍanagara, apparently in West India, in about 1370; by Padmanābha¹⁴⁸ (Nārmadī), probably also in West India, in about 1400; by Viśvanātha (Brahmatulyodāharaṇa) at Benares in 1612; and by Sumatiharṣa Gaṇi (Gaṇakakumudakaumudī) near the Vindhyādri in 1621. The Karaṇakutūhalatīkā of Soḍhala was composed before 1462, the date of its unique manuscript copy,¹⁴⁹ and that of Caṇḍīdāsa¹⁵⁰ before 1658. There is a set of planetary tables, the Brahmatulyasāriṇī,¹⁵¹ based on the KK.
