In this paper, we propose and evaluate a Finite State Machine (FSM) approach for Krudanta processing for Marathi; an agglutinative and highly inflectional language belonging to the Indo-European family with semblances of Dravidian languages. Krudanta is the phenomenon of participial construction that needs adroit handling for high quality output in machine translation (MT). We contextualize this work in a transfer based Marathi to Hindi Machine Translation system to observe the importance of Krudanta processing. Results with and without Krudanta processing establish the need for this work. 1
