Antakrddaaśāh is the eighth of the 12 Jain āgamas said to be promulgated by Māhavīra himself. Antakrddaaśāh translated as "Ten Chapters on End-Makers" is said to have been composed by Ganadhara Sudharmaswami as per the Śvetámbara tradition.

The Antakrddaaśāh describes individuals whose austerities led them to nirvana.[1] It contains stories from the time of Nemi, the twenty-second Tirthankara.[1]

The text contains the biographies of ten ascetics in the order of Mahāvīra: Nami, Mataṅga, Somila, Rāmaputra, Sudarśana, Yamalīka, Valīka, Kiṣkambala, Pāla, and Ambaṣṭhaputra.[2]: 290
