Identifier: DHARMA_INSSIIv13p0i0168.

Summary: This records an investment of 80 kaḻañju of gold by the standard weight known as Dharmakaṭṭaḷai-kal by the temple at Tiruvūṟal-puram in Puriśai-nāḍu of Maṇaiyiṟ-kōṭṭam with the sabhā of Aparājita-chaturvēdimaṅgalam, who agreed to have this deposit with them in perpetuity and to pay 10 kaḻañju as interest thereon in the month of Chittirai every year and a penal interest of 18 poṉ for every day of default to be recovered from them by the temple in the Dharmāsana. Toṇḍai-nāḍu in which Takkōlam is situated is known to have come under the Chōḷa rule only after the 21st year of Āditya I. Hence this may be assigned to Gaṇḍarāditya.
