Summary: This fragmentary record is dated in the 24th year of a king whose name is partially lost and registers a gift of land as bhaṭṭavṛitti by Śivanandi . . . . . of Śūnṟūr and another, whose name is lost, both members of the āḷum-gaṇa of Nal[lil]maṅgalam in Mēṟpaḷugūr-nāḍu, a subdivision of [Maṇa]yiṟ-kōṭṭam.

From its palaeography the record may be attributed to the 9th century A.D. and considering the high regnal year, it can be taken as belonging to Nṛipatuṅgappōttaraiyar.
