Jhala is a Rajput clan.[1][2] They are found in Rajasthan and Gujarat state of India. The clan is also found among Koli castes [3] as Jala.

The Jhalawar state ruled by Jhala Rajputs in Rajasthan was a 17-gun salute state,[4] the princely state of Dhrangadhra was a 13-gun salute state in the 1920s, when it was ruled by members of the Jhala dynasty. At that time, Jhalas also governed in the 11-gun salute state of Wankaner and in the 9-gun salute states of Limbdi and Wadhwan, as well as in the non-salute states of Lakhtar, Sayla and Chuda.[5]
