Summary: On the west wall, Bhikshāṇḍār shrine, Śivayōganāthasvāmin temple.

Year 6: 977 A.D.

Incomplete. Contains a royal order issued to the sabhaiyār of Vembaṟṟūr, a brahmadēyam-taniyūr in Maṇṇi-nāḍu, on the supplication made by his official who managed the king’s affairs, Parittikkuḍaiyāṉ Kodukulavaṉ Sāttan alias Parakēsari Mūvēndavēḷāṉ, when the king was at the hall of the palace at Paḻaiyāṟu, to deduct from his sixth regnal year onwards, 47 1/2 kaḻañju of gold, being the tax on 4 3/4 vēli of land purchased and endowed by the queen-mother of the king at Vembaṟṟūr, out of the total amount of tax 3917 kaḻañju and 3 mañjāḍi of gold due from the village to the sabhā. The land had been purchased and endowed by the queen even in the king’s third regnal year for providing 108 pots of water for conducting the sacred bath on every saṅkrānthi day and also for providing mid-night food offerings daily to the god of Tiruviśalūr, a hamlet of Vembaṟṟūr, for the merit of the king. Several officials figure as signatories for this transaction.
