Adv Archana Deshmukh (Expert) 10 July 2013
Ordinarily a child takes the caste of his father.

Except in some specific areas, e.g., North East States, a child is known by the caste of his father.

Southern state ???

You may need to check local laws of that particular southern state.

Generally father caste, in doubt confirm the local laws.

Exceptions are the social tradition of that community, custom etc. which can be seen in North Eastern area wherein the society is mother oriented.
