This inscription states that the resettlement of the four villages given to the sixty-four persons as sarvamāṉya, who were the bearers of the god (image) Chokkanāthasvāmin earlier. However the arrangement was cancelled later. Unable to put up with this one person committed suicide by jumping down from the top of the gōpura of the temple. This convinced the ruler to confirm the grant as sarvamānya.

This inscription is damaged and incomplete. It records that a kaikkōḷa, Kāḷi Avanāsiyāṇ[ḍāṉ] Ellāmvalla Sōḻagaṅgar donated (two) āṉai-achchu sīyakki-paḻañjalāgai for the livelihood of a person who brings fifty pots of water for the sacred bath of the deity Tirumurugaṉpūṇḍināyanār. It seems that the temple officials who received the amount, allotted a plot of land and agreed to remit paddy for the above purpose. ⟨Page 17⟩

This inscription is built in at the end. It seems to record that Sundaranāḍan, a devotee (ṭiruvēgambaḍiyār) residing at the temple complex (tirumaḍaiviḷāgam) deposited certain amount in the temple treasury and the interest accrued out of this amount as millet was to be utilized for providing food offerings and for the procession of the deity.

This inscription registers some special privileges of honour (variśaigaḷ) conferred by the king on a brahmaṇa by name Kāśyapaṉ Veṇkāḍaṉ Bavadāsaṉ Nārāyaṇaṉ alias Abhimāṉasōḻa Bhaṭṭaṉ and the temple servants including dancing girls and drummers (tapasyar, dēvaraḍiyār and uvachchar) who were residing in the temple complex (tirumaḍaiviḷāgam). It is stated that they were allowed to have the privilege of sounding the drums (bhērikai) and gongs (sēkaṇḍi), evidently when they go out in a procession. They were also given the right to build their house with two floors, two entrances both in front and back and coating the walls with plaster. They were also entitled to have this document written on stone and copper plate.

Incomplete. It contains the royal order addressed to two Śivabrāhmaṇās of Āḷuḍaiyār temple at Tirumurugaṉpūṇḍi. It appears that during the rule of his younger brother certain Murugāṇḍāṉ deposited some amount and tried to make the kāṇi right of the two priests null and void. The aggrieved persons appealed to the king who restored their right after they deposited fifteen achchu.

Incomplete. This inscription records the gift of all taxes such as irai-mānya, śuṅga, and maṉaivari, to be collected from the settlers, peasants and merchants of Sāmasamudram, a village founded by one Sāma Nayiṉār in his own name.

Sāma Nayiṉār is mentioned in this record as an agent of Triyampaka Uḍaiyār, son of Tipparāsa Uḍaiyār who governed the Muḷvāy area during the period of the Vijayanagara king Vīrapratāpa Krishṇarāya Mahārāya.

The said land was gifted by the general Dharmiyaṉ Vaḍuganāthaṉ alias Vīrarājēndra Dharmapālar after purchase. The sabhā received 500 kāśu from the donor as deposit towards taxes of that land. At the bidding of the twelve brāhmaṇas who represented their wards, the transaction was ordered to be engraved on stone and copperplate.
