In Jainism, an Acharya (also spelled "Aacharya") is a spiritual leader and head of the Jain monastic community. The Acharya is responsible for the spiritual guidance of monks, nuns, and lay followers, and also for maintaining the code of conduct and discipline within the order.

A Jain Acharya Chart typically refers to a genealogical or hierarchical listing of Acharyas in a particular sect (Shwetambar or Digambar). Each sect, and sometimes sub-sects (gacchas, sanghs), maintain a list of their line of Acharyas, tracing their spiritual lineage (Guru-shishya parampara).

Below is a simplified example of what a Jain Acharya chart may look like for both major sects:

---
