How many bafna community in india

“Bafna” is a Jain/Baniya community (mostly in Rajasthan, Gujarat, MP, Maharashtra etc.), but:

• The Government of India does not publish population data by such specific communities / surnames.
• Census data is available only by religion (e.g., “Jain”) and some broad castes, not by individual communities like Bafna, Oswal, Porwal, etc.
• Different local Bafna sanghs/mandals may give their own rough estimates, but there is no single official, reliable number for “how many Bafna in India”.

So, honestly: At present, no accurate, official count exists for the Bafna community in India.
