This inscription states that in the 15th year of Nṛipatuṅgavarman, the assembly of Kāvidipākkam [alias] Avaṉinārāyaṇa-chaturvēdimaṅgalam agreed to measure one uḻakku of oil daily by the liquid measure Māṉāya-nāḻi, for lighting the central shrine of the temple of Tirumēṟṟaḷi-Aḍigaḷ, with the interest on 17 kaḻañju of gold received by them from Śaḍaṅkaviyār of Kaṇviḻchchil in Ōḍappuṟai. The name Avaṉinārāyaṇachaturvēdimaṅgalam must have been given to Kāvidipākkam after the surname ‘Avaṉinārāyaṇa’Nandikkalambagam, vv. 18, 44, 46.
The record is left incomplete and it is engraved in characters of the 11th century A.D. The stone bearing this record must have belonged originally to a temple of Vishṇu (Tirumēṟṟaḷi-Aḍigaḷ) in the village and was probably shifted here at some later time.
