[[Simhana]]'s conquests, which included Ballary and Anantapur, brought his frontiers into direct contact with the Kakatiya kingdom ruled by Ganapati. During this period, [[Simhana]] and Ganapati engaged in conflict, with both sides claiming victory in their historical records. Despite these conflicting claims, the available evidence suggests that [[Simhana]] succeeded in advancing into Kakatiya territory.<ref>{{Cite book |last=Murthy |first=A. V.

This assertion is supported by inscriptional evidence. For example, a Telugu inscription attributed to [[Simhana]] has been discovered in the Nalgonda district, while another Kannada inscription has been found in the [[Kurnool district]]. These inscriptions, which are geographically located outside of [[Simhana]]'s traditionally recognized domain, indicate that his influence extended beyond the [[Tungabhadra River.]] | This assertion is supported by inscriptional evidence.

Given this inscriptional evidence, it becomes clear that [[Simhana]]'s empire did indeed cross the Tungabhadra, contrary to Derret's claim that [[Simhana]] had not ventured beyond this river. The evidence thus challenges Derret's statement and confirms that Simghana's territorial ambitions and achievements were more extensive than previously acknowledged. | Given this inscriptional evidence, it becomes clear that [[Simhana]]'s empire did indeed cross the Tungabhadra, contrary to Derret's claim that [[Simhana]] had not ventured beyond this river.
