[yasya haasah sa chet kvaapi saakshaan naiva nibadhyate |]

[tathaapy esha vibhaavaadi-saamarthyaad upalabhyate ||28||]
Blended reading (Sanskrit + English inline)
yasya hāsaḥ sa cet kvāpi sākṣān naiva nibadhyate |
tathāpy eṣa vibhāvādi-sāmarthyād upalabhyate ||28||
If the person instigating hāsya is not directly discernable, that person can be understood by the similarity of the vibhāva and the other elements with other cases.
Purport
Sometimes there are indirect sarcastic remarks which also create atihasita circumstances.
