Summary: On the west and south walls of the central shrine in the Śivāṅkurēśvara temple.

Kulōttuṅgachōḷa III. Year 15: 1194 A.D.

This inscription commences with the praśasti Puyalvāyttu etc., of Kulōttuṅga III. The uḷvari is dated in the 271st day of the 15th year of the king. It also mentions that some assessments were made respectively in the 29th and 32nd regual years of Rājēndra I and Rājādhirāja I (Vijaiyarājēndra, who died seated on an elephant).

It records the gift of 50 vēli of land in Kaṇḍigaimēlūr, a hamlet of Jayaṅgoṇḍachaturvēdimaṅgalam, a brahmadēya of Mēṟkā-nāḍu in Rājarāja-valanāḍu in Virudarājabhayaṅkara-vaḷanāḍu, as a tax-free dēvadāṉa to the god at the temple of Tiruttiṉainagar. However two kinds of lands in it, wet and garden lands (nīrnilattōpādi-nilam and kollainilattōpādi-nilam) were to pay a levy (iṟaikaṭṭu) respectively at the rate of 35 and 15 kalams per vēli according to the demands of the variyilār and varikkūṟu śeyvār in the uḷvari.
