GUPTA

'Gupta' is a surname of Indian origin. Gupta is a common surname in India, but it is uncertain whether there was one parent clan from which all families with Gupta surname branched. According to the historian R. C. Majumdar, it is more probable that different families without any connection adopted this name at different times.[1] Gupta can refer to:
