The names of poets Raam, Shyam and Kaal appear repeatedly in the granth. Some others dispute the claim of the authorship, saying that some of the compositions included in Dasam Granth such as Charitropakhyan are "out of tune" with other Sikh scriptures, and must have been composed by other poets. An example of varying style can be seen in the sections 'Chandi Charitar' and 'Bhagauti ki War'. But the veracity of the letter has been examined by scholars and found to be unreliable.

The traditional scholars claim that all the works in Dasam Granth were composed by the Guru himself, on the basis of Bhai Mani Singh's letter. Later, Bhai Mani Singh compiled all the available works under the title Dasam Granth. There were copiers available at the Guru's place who made several copies of the writings, and other writings may have been included too which may have led to authenticity issues. Most of the writing compiled at Anandpur Sahib was lost while the Guru's camp was crossing the Sirsa river before the Battle of Chamkaur in 1704. In his religious court at Anandpur Sahib, Guru Gobind Singh had employed 52 poets, who translated several classical texts into Braj Bhasha.

Īlthough the compositions of the Dasam Granth are traditionally accepted to be penned by Guru Gobind Singh, there have been questions of the authenticity of the entirety of Dasam Granth from time of compilation. These manuscripts include the Hinduism that are questioned by most Sikhs in the contemporary era, as well as sections such as the Ugradanti and Sri Bhagauti Astotra. Other manuscripts are said to include the Patna bir and the Mani Singh Vali bir all originated in mid to late 18th century. Zafarnama and Hikayats in a different style and format appended to it in the mid 18th century.

Compositions of the Dasam Granth include Jaap Sahib, Tav-Prasad Savaiye and Benti Chaupai which are part of the Nitnem or daily prayers and also part of the Amrit Sanchar or initiation ceremony of Khalsa Sikhs. Parts of it are popularly retold from Hindu Purans, for the benefit of the common man, who had no access to Hindu texts of the time.
