This set of copper plates were found alongside a second Viṣṇukundin charter in the village of Tummalagūdem in Rāmannapeṭa taluk in the Nalgoṇḍa district of Telingana.
The charter records the donation of the village of Peṇkapara to the Āryasaṁgha in the Paramabhaṭṭārikā-mahāvihāra in the town of Indrapura; the vihāra was built by Gōvindavarman’s eldest Queen, Paramabhaṭṭārikā Mahādēvī.
The donation was made by Gōvindavarman on the full moon day of Vaiśākha in the 37th year of Gōvindavarman’s reign.
