They record grants to the Vellore Temple, which were made at the request of Śiṉṉa-Bommu-nāyaka of Velūr by Kṛishṇappa-nāyaka Ayyaṉ, with the consent of Śrīraṅga-deva-mahārāyar.

The Śrīraṅga-deva mentioned in Nos. 47 to 49 is Śrīraṅgarāya I. of Karṇāṭa, of whom we have copper-plate grants of Śaka 1497 and 1506Ind. Ant., Vol. XIII, p. 155.. An inscription of his tributary Kṛishṇappa-nāyaka dated Śaka 1500 has been translated by Mr. Rice.Mysore Inscriptions, p. 220. On Śiṉṉa-Bommu-nāyaka of Velūr, see the introduction of No. 43.
