In Jain Dharma, there is no single fixed count of sects, because different traditions and sub-traditions are counted in different ways.

Main two sects

1. Digambar
2. Śvetāmbara

Śvetāmbara has further major branches

• Mūrtipūjaka
• Sthānakavāsī
• Terāpanth

Digambar also has many sub-traditions

• Bisapanth
• Terāpanth
• Tāraṇpanth

So, in simple terms:

• 2 main sects
• many sub-sects

If someone asks for the major sects, the answer is two.
