Hi all,
The Grantha language considers the க்ஷ as another consonant. I have already send the K.Venugopalan's book to this mailing list. Please check the consonants tables.
One more thought
The conjunct consonant cannot comes with the vowel modifiers. For an example the ஸ்ரீ. At the same time க்ஷ will forms the க்ஷா, க்ஷி, க்ஷீ, etc like other consonants.
So I think it should not be defend as a conjunct consonant
Kind Regards
Bala
