This inscription is also engraved in the same script as the above and consists of 11 verses in Sanskrit praising the king Atyantakāma who built this temple for Śiva and called it ‘Atyantakāma-Pallavēśvara-gṛiham,’ after his surname. Atyantakāma is here given the birudas, Śrīnidhi, Śrībhara, Raṇajaya, Taruṇāṅkura, Kāmarāga, etc. From the ślēsha used in the epithets Chitramāya, Guṇabhājana, Svastha, Niruttara and Paramēśvara which are applicable both to Śiva and the king, the late Dr. Hultzsch concluded that the actual name of the king was Paramēśvara and that he was identical with Paramēśvaravarman I.
