Bibliography
The inscription was noted in A. R. No. 342 of 1922 and first published by J. Ramayya Pantulu in 1948, pp. 342–343, № 639 with few metadata and without translation. K. M. Sastri, while relying on J. Ramayya Pantulu’s edition, gives a short summary:
Refers to Manuja Triṇētra Baidumba mahārāja, with the usual praśasti of the Vaidumba kings, ruling the Rēnāṇḍu seven thousand, and a battle at Alagiṇḍi1 the details of which are not clear. Some one is said to have defeated and destroyed the army of Vajjirāju, and having killed Pakko... went to Heaven.

Notes
1. As indicated by four dots after the word alagi at the end of line 3 several akṣaras must be missing here according to J. Ramayya Pantulu’s edition. If the edition is correct the place name could not have been Alagiṇḍi.
