There is no specific data available on the population of the Udayar caste in Tamil Nadu. Caste-based census data is not publicly available in India due to government policies. It is important to note that collecting and sharing caste-based demographic data can perpetuate discrimination and stereotypes.
Nathaman udayar belongs to BC category in Tamilnadu state. But in India (central government), it belongs to OBC category.
