## Summary

This inscription is dated during the reign of Vīra-Veṅkaṭapatirāyar and
in the Śrīmukha year. This is Śaka 1556, two years before No. 107 and
three years before an inscription of Veṅkaṭa II. published in the Indian
Antiquary, Vol. XIII, p. 125. The inscription records that
Govindappa-nāyaka caused the maṇḍapa to be built and allotted some land
in Kaṛaṉipākkam for the maṇḍapa, which was to be used as a watershed and
sattram.
