This inscription is dated in the year opposite to the fourth of some king whose name is not given in it. It registers a gift of money made by the Pallava king Nandippōttaraiyar who fought and won the battle of Teḷḷāṟu, for burning a perpetual lamp in the temple of Mahādēva at Tiruttavattuṟai in Iḍaiyāṟṟu-nāḍu. The amount was received by the members of the assembly of Nallimaṅgalam who bound themselves to bring to the temple and measure out daily (one) nāḻi of ghee.

As the other record (No. 12-B) engraved close to this and dated in a similar way belongs to Māṟañjaḍaiyaṉ alias Varaguṇa-mahārāja, this may be also assigned to the same king.
