L.5 | - this mark of punktuation is redundant; read: aмsa. (Mi.)
L.6 Read: vaмщаnаm. (Mi.)
L.7 Read: bhаgиratthyamala. (Mi.)
L.9 Read: Gautamиputrasya putrasya, as in other grants. (Mi.)
L.10 Read: satyаrjjava-. (Mi.)
L.11 Read: mаhаtmyadhиmattvapаtragatabhaktitva. (Mi.)
L.12 Read: varшaщata. (Mi.)
L.15 Read: pрthivишenasya. (Mi.)
L.16 Read: sуnoh. The following word is redundant. (Mi.)
L.18 This akshara nna is redundant. (Mi.)
L.19 Read: pрthivиrаjapradattasya. (Mi.)
L.21 Read: brаhmaнavатakagrаmasyаparapаrщve; -garttаyам. (Mi.)
L.22 Read: darbhapathasyаpareнa. (Mi.)
L.23 Read: sahasre; rаjamаnena; read brаhmaнebhyo after nаnаgotracaraнebhyo; read datte (qualifying sahasre dve in this line). (Mi.)
L.26 Read: rаjamаnena; bhуmeх paгcaviмщatiх. (Mi.)
L.27 Read: niveщananivartanena saha; saмvatsare. (Mi.)
L.28 Read: varшаpakшe; divase; the meaning of padan-narаti is not clear; read: vаstavya. (Mi.)
L.29 Read: аrammirаjye; saмgamikаyам; rаjamаnena; bуmeх paгcaviмщatiх. (Mi.)
L.30. Read: niveщananivartanena; saмvatsare; varшаpakшe; divase. (Mi.)
L.31 Read: saмvatsare; this date appears superfluous; the meaning of nijuttinarаti is not clear; read: vаstavya. (Mi.)

L.38 Read: akaradаyи; abhaтacchаtraprаveщyaх. These expressions,which qualify some word, like grаmaх, are really inapplicable here as the object of the gift is some land and not the village. (Mi.)

L.45 Read: kаrayedvа. (Mi.)
L.53 Read: saмvatsare ekonatriмщe. (Mi.)
