A huge sculpture of Hanuman facing to left with the right hand raised above behind him. The uplifted tail goes above the head and ends in a concentric circle near the left arm.

The head is ornamented with a fillet and hair is tied in a knot at the back. To the left and right, adjacent to the face of Hanuman, are depicted shankha (conch) and chakra (discus) respectively. On the topmost part of the panel, at the centre is a crescent moon. A sun is depicted near the end of the tail. Apasmarapurusha is seen in between the feet of the God.
