Mehta
Mehta (Punjabi: ਮੈਹਤਾ/ਮਹਿਤਾ, Hindi: मैहता, Gujarati: મહેતા), is a prominent surname found in Punjabi Khatris, Gujarati Vaish, Parsis, Oswal Jains and Mohyal Brahmins. Its origin is from the Sanskrit word mahita meaning 'praised' or 'great'. ==Mehtas of Gujarat== In Gujarat, the term ''Mehta'' often means ‘teacher’ or ‘accountant’, probably because in colonial times many people with the Mehta surname were educated and took up those jobs. Some Parsi families which migrated to Western India due to persecution by Muslim rulers in Persia, took Mehta as their surname with the most notable example being Zubin Mehta. Mehtas are today among the most successful entrepreneurs and industrialists in Gujarat and Mumbai, of which the Mehta Group is an example.
