The inscription on the wall states that this temple was renovated by Kunvarpal, the father of Dharana Shah, the renovator of the Ranakpur temple and Kumarpal’s advisor Limba on the first day of the bright half of the month of Fagan in the year 1465 of the Vikram era. On an idol in this temple, He is an inscription of the year 1229 on the Vikram era. It is, therefore, believed that this temple belongs to a period of time earlier than the twelfth century of the vikram era. These are extraordinary artistic ancient metal idols brought here from Vasantgadh after its destruction. On one of the idols, there is a carved inscription of the year 744 of the Vikram era. A flag is hoisted every year on the sixth day of the bright half of the month of Vaishakh.
