This incomplete inscription records the creation of a brāhmaṇical settlement, which consisted of forty eight ma wet land twenty four mā of dry land, named after the prince Sheṇbagarāma pāṇḍyadēvar alias Vīrapāṇḍyadēvar, Vīrapāṇḍyach-chaturvēdimaṅgalam by the king infavour of eighteen Vēdic brāhmaṇas and one brāhmaṇa, who was to read Pañchāṅga. It is also stated that they were to recite Vedas and Purāṇas and read Pañchāṅga before the king.
Besides these, land shares were also set apart to five brāhmaṇas. They were Mālādhara Bhaṭṭaṉ in Śaka 1378, Śrī Kṛishṇa Bhaṭṭaṉ in Śaka 1382, Padmanābha Bhaṭṭaṉ, Nārāyaṇa Bhaṭṭaṉ Parākrama Pāṇḍya Brahmādarāyaṉ and Kailāśanātha Bhaṭṭaṉ along with the above nineteen brāhmaṇas in Śaka 1384. The latter, Kailāśanātha Bhaṭṭaṉ, was to expound Purāṇas. The inscription also narrates in detail matters relating to the land shares i.e., boundaries, extent and other details. The nativity of these donees, their gōtras and sūtras are also given.
