The Kuta are a Hindu caste found in the state of Uttar Pradesh in India.
[1] The Kuta are an occupational Hindu caste traditionally associated with rice husking.
They are a small community, found mainly in the districts of Bahraich, Moradabad and Shahjahanpur.
They are divided into ten exogamous sub-divisions, known as paltis, namely the Chauhan, Parihar, Gahlot, Solanki, Hamoria, Shishwal, Chandravanshi, Rathor, Parmar and Kotak.
Each Kuta settlement also contains a biradari panchayat, an informal caste association, which acts as an instrument of social control.
