Present circumstances[edit]
The Rattal are strictly endogamous and practice clan exogamy. Their main include the Sargotra, Lakkotra, Mootan, Kath, Kulsota and Sundeh. They do not have an informal caste council, which distinguishes them from other Jammu Hindus who tend have elaborate caste councils.
The Rattal have now become landowners, as a result of the land reforms, and the bulk of them are small and marginal farmers. The decades since independence in 1947 has seen major changes in their socio-economic status
