Padmaṭadeva or simply Padmaṭa is the name of an ancient king, as mentioned in the “Plate of Padmaṭadeva” (tenth century A.D.). Padmaṭadeva was the son of P. M. P. Desaṭadeva (Desaṭa) and Mahādevī Padmallādevī, the grandson of P. M. P. Icchaṭadeva (Icchaṭa) and Mahādevī Siṅghūdevī, and the great grandson of Saloṇāditya and Mahādevī Siṅghuvalidevī.
