The largest subdivisions of Ahirs in Braj-Ahirwal area are the Ghosi, Kamariya, Phataks and Nandvanshis.
In the Braj-Ahirwal region, the Ghosi and other subdivisions of Ahirs were gradually absorbed into the Nandvanshi category of landlords and into the Yaduvanshi subdivision as a consequence of British so-called "official" ethnographies and racial theories.
