Guha is primarily a Bengali Kayastha surname found among the Bengali Hindus in the Indian states of West Bengal, Tripura and the neighbouring country Bangladesh, though it is occasionally found among other Indian communities.
Guhas mostly belong to Kayastha caste in Bengal. The Bengali Kayasthas evolved as a caste from a category of officials, between the 5th/6th century AD and 11th/12th century AD, its component elements being putative Kshatriyas and mostly Brahmins. Guhas (and Guhathakurtas) are considered as Kulin Kayasthas of Kashyapa gotra, along with Boses, Ghoshes and Mitras.
