Shah come in which gotra
“Shah” is generally not a single gotra in Jain Dharma. It is more commonly a surname/title used by many Jain families, especially in merchant communities.
In Jain tradition, gotra is family-specific, so a person with the surname Shah may belong to different gotras depending on the actual ancestral lineage.
So the correct answer is:
- Shah = surname/title
- Gotra = varies by family
- It is not possible to तय (fix) one gotra for all Shahs
If you want, I can also explain the difference between gotra, kul, and surname in Jain tradition.
