Karak is a General Caste in West Bengal and some other states in India. Karak general caste are considered higher foward castes and belong to business, agriculture, industrial castes like Mahisyas, Kshatriyas. Sources take them back to the Narmada region in India, which used to be known as Mashimati long time back. Many provincial Kings and Dynasties / landlords have been associated with the Mahisya caste, who have strong agrarian routes and have developed their business beyond agricultural zones and rank in the high income groups.

However, it is a multi-caste Surname like Sarkar, Roy, Mondal, Ghosh, etc. in Bengal, wherein some people can belong to OBCs and SCs also.. So, it is best to verify the caste and gotra during or before any religious or nuptial ceremony to avoid conflict.
