The Godha are Jain tribal caste people found in the state of Gujarat in India having roots in Rajasthan. They are also known as Gondha and Gonda. The Godha sometimes (depending on region) use Dengar as a community surname.[1]

The Godha are descended from a group of tribal Gondi people that migrated from Madhya Pradesh some five centuries ago.[citation needed] They are mainly distributed in Surat, Valsad and Rajasthan.
