This inscription, dated in the 2nd year of the reign of Kampavarman, registers the sale, to a certain Valiyāṇai, of the right of collecting one kāḍi of paddy per crop, by the assembly of Poṟpondai in Kuṟumpuṟai-nāḍu, a subdivision of Kaḷattūrkōṭṭam for the upkeep of the tank Malaiveḷḷapperuṅkuḷam. Kuṟumpuṟai-nāḍu must have comprised the territory round about Poṟpandal near Chingleput town. The god Kuṟumpiṟai-Nayiṉār is also referred to in an inscriptionA.R. No. 400 of 1923. from Śālavākkam, a village close to Poṟpandal.

The special imprecation attached to the inscription viz. ‘that the defaulter will incur the sin of having destroyed Kachchippēḍu’, indicates the great reverence with which the town of Kāñchīpuram was regarded at this period.
