India's caste system is a complex social hierarchy based on birth, with individuals belonging to specific hereditary social categories, whereas the Aryan social class system was a simpler division into four main groups - Brahmins (priests), Kshatriyas (warriors), Vaishyas (merchants), and Shudras (laborers). The caste system in India is more rigid and stratified compared to the Aryan social class system.

The class system that developed in Aryan society was known as the caste system. It consisted of four main social classes or varnas: Brahmins (priests and scholars), Kshatriyas (warriors and rulers), Vaishyas (merchants and farmers), and Shudras (laborers and servants). Below these varnas were the Dalits or Untouchables, who were considered to be outside of the caste system and faced severe discrimination.

social anthropology
The social class system and caste system in India are both systems of social stratification based on hereditary aspects. However, the caste system is more rigid and hierarchical, with individuals being born into specific castes that determine their social status and occupation, while the social class system is more fluid and allows for some degree of mobility based on individual achievements and wealth. Additionally, the caste system has a religious basis in Hinduism, while the social class system is more influenced by economic factors.
