SUBCAST |

Third in the Varna system, Vaishyas supposedly evolved from Brahma's thighs. The Vaishya's duty was to
ensure the community's prosperity through trade and merchandising.
They are commonly known as banias, a distortion of the Sanskrit word vanik meaning "trader". In southern India, the
Chettiars and Mudaliars while in North Agarwals , Maheshwaris , Khandelwals are prominent Vaishya communities, who
have contributed to society by building hospitals, endowing universities and developing industries . While the
fortunes of the other castes have fluctuated with politics and invasions, the Vaishyas alone have preserved their
social and financial stability down the ages movement and then evolved into modern India's leading industrialists.
The colour associated with this Varna is yellow, symbolizing Rajas/Tamas, meaning quality in general. Some traditional
north Indian surnames for Vaishyas are Gupta, Bhuti, Agarwal,Garg.
According to the Indian caste system, Vanika (Sanskrit) or Bania (Hindi) is a trader or merchant belonging to the
business class.
Trading communities in India include:
• Agrawals of Haryana, Delhi, Uttar Pradesh and Punjab
• Guptas, related to Agarwals
