Answer

In Jain tradition, “Nahar” is commonly associated with the “Nahata / Nahar” lineage, but the exact gotra can vary by region, sect, and family tradition.

So it is not possible to state one universal gotra for all people with the surname Nahar.

Explanation

Among Jain communities, surnames and gotras are not always identical. A surname like Nahar may be used by different families whose gotra may differ depending on:

• Community, such as Oswal, Porwal, Shrimal, etc.
• Region, such as Rajasthan, Gujarat, Madhya Pradesh, etc.
• Family lineage records
• Traditional family bahi or kul-vanshavali

Takeaway

To know the correct gotra for a specific Nahar family, it is best to ask family elders or check the family’s traditional Jain lineage records.
