TRANSLATION (Line 1) In the Saka year (indicated by) sētuvandyaSriman Verkatadēsika gave the village, Chin tămani, to Sri-Rangēša.
The syllable na is written with one below the other. 'A corrupt form of kēka. * The stone is mutilated here. Sa or ma may be the intended letter. • The sign for rēpha is inserted in between the two consonants. * The usual prothetic vowel a has been replaced here by i in Iranganada. • Readochchilakalam. * Represented by a symbol. • Either 7 is a mistake for 6 or 14 is a mistake for 15. • The figure 1 seems to have been written later at the beginning of the line. 10 The letter r is a mistake for the ordinary trill.
11 This portion is written over an erasure and hence indistinct ; nevertheless it can be read on the inpression. This erasure and the last line of the inscription rouse some suspicion about the genuineness of this portion. Usually this share is given to a nominee of the donor. Hence it is called vittavan vilukkádrs. It is highly improhsblo that a royal preceptor would have thought of nominating himself or his descendants to receive the share. This portion may be a later interpolation.
11 The length of tho o medial sign is engraved at the beginning of tbe next line. * Line 14 soems to have been written later after the engraving of the main inscription was completed. 14 This chronogram yields the number 1467.
