The manuscript is in Devanāgarī script.

The text is a commentary on the Brahmasūtra, the authoritative aphorisms of Vedānta philosophy.

The side margins ruled in red, erasures with yellow; mostly no daṇḍas but space has been left for later insertion (presumably in red).

Colophon (folio 61 verso): iti śrīmacchārīrakamīmāṃsābhāṣye śrīmacchaṃkarabhagavatpādakṛtau tṛtīyasyadhyāyasya caturthaḥ pādaḥ 4 samāpto yaṃ tṛtīyo dhyāyaḥ cha (7 times) [that is, ‘This is the fourth section of the third adhyāyaḥ (chapter) in the Śārīrakamīmāṃsābhāsya (more usually known by its shorter name, Brahmasūtrabhāṣya) written by the honoured Śaṃkara. 4. This third chapter is ended.’]

The volume has been misbound so that every alternate page is upside down.
