Bhulia is an Indian Hindu caste originally from western Odisha but presently found throughout Odisha, India.

The Bhulia have a high position with the weaver caste. They have no sub castes. They are a weaver caste known primarily for their tie-dye fabrics (known as sambalpuri).[1] Bhulia caste members all use the surname Meher, and are therefore sometimes also referred to as the Meher Tanti (tanti being a generic term for all weaver castes).[1]
