The main branch of this Mutt is in the village Shirur, near hiriyadka.The idol of Vithala with Sri Devi and Bhudevi gifted by the Acharya to the first pontiff Sri Varmana Tirtha of this Mutt is worshipped here. To distinguish this Vithala from the other idols of Vithala, the name Varma Vithala is given to this idol.The 30th pontiff in the lineage Sri Lakshmivara Tirtha is the present chief of this Mutt. He was initiated at the age of 8 years in june 1971.Present shiroor pontiff is known to be a household names for many things like daredevilry to jump from top of the roof to madhwa sarovara, giving lakhs of rupees to tiger dance and other veshas during Sri Krishna Janmashtami, supporting the people in various fields like music, sea swimming, etc.

Sri Vamana Teertha, a direct disciple of Sri Madhwacharya, was the original pontiff of this Math and the deity is `Sri Vittala.
