Author of digital edition: Emmanuel Francis (emfr).

Summary: This states that at the instance of the chief Paḻuvēṭṭaraiyar Maṟavaṉ Kaṇḍaṉār, the nagarattār of Avanigandharvvapuram had it engraved on stone that all the taxes (maṉṟupāḍu) in this village might be accepted on the model of those prevailing at Nandipuram from olden times (See No. 215 below).
