Etymology

Padye Brahmins belong to Panch Dravida group of Brahmins and is a sub-caste of Karhade Brahmin community. Majority of Padye people are found in Goa,due to many socio-economic reasons they settled in the neighboring states of Maharashtra,Karnataka, and some parts of Kerala.It is believed that roots of this community are in Karhatak ( present day Karhad ) in Maharashtra.
