Kandarpadharma was the King of the Simhapura dynasty of Champa. He ruled from 629 to an unknown date, when he was succeeded by his son, King Prabhasadharma.[1] His rule was peaceful and he sent two missions to China in 630 and 631.
Kandarpadharma was the first king in history officially to offer the title King of Champa: campāpr̥thivībhuj (lord of the land of Champa) and śrī campeśvara (Lord of the Cham) of Campādeśa (the country of the Cham) and Campāpura (the cities/state of Champa). Kandarpadharma was a member of Simhapura dynasty/Gangeśvara dynasty founded by Gangaraja.
