## Summary

This inscription is much damaged. It seems to record an endowment, the
nature of which is not clear, to a Jaina shrine called
Gaṅgaśūrapperumbaḷḷi at Rāja[kēsari]puram by Śrī Gaṅgaraiyaṉ. It also
mentions another shrine called Maiśuttapperumbaḷḷi in the same place and
a paḷḷichchandam land situated in Tiruviḍaikkaḻi.
