The classification of Baniya communities in India varies by state and context. In some states, certain Baniya groups are recognized as Other Backward Classes (OBC), while in others, they may not be. The categorization can depend on social, economic, and educational factors specific to the region. It's essential to check local government notifications for the most accurate and up-to-date information regarding their status.

No, surely not.Jainism is a religion or dharma while Baniya is the name of a community. The word Baniya has originated from the word Vanik which in ancient times was used to refer to Traders or business class community. Even when Britishers came to India they were referred to as Baniya as they came to India as traders.Since most of the Jains in Gujarat were involved in business activities in previous times, they were referred to as Vanik and later on Baniya. But nowadays the conditions are not the same. The word Baniya is many a times used as a term of abuse.So, as per facts, Jains do not belong to Baniya community and both the terms are different.
