/ik / इक्

The /ik vowels are

i इ I ई u उ U ऊ R ऋ RR ॠ L ऌ

and appear in the /zivasUtra as

i uN | इ उण्।
R Lk | ऋ ऌक्।.

Wait... the /zivasUtra do not mention I ई U ऊ RR ॠ. Why do you say that I ई u उ RR ॠ too are /ik?

Because rule aNuditsav... teaches that a /tit-less i इ in any sUtra stands for "i इ and I ई", etc.
