Mochi are a sub-caste of the Chamar caste. They are found mainly in the Punjab state of India, in the districts of Patiala, Ludhiana and Nabha. The majority of the Mochis in Punjab are Hindu but some are Sikh. Almost all Sikh Mochi are members of the Ravidasi sect. Most are involved in their traditional occupation of shoemaking.^{[citation needed]}

Although the Sikh Mochi practice endogamy and clan exogamy, there are occasional cases of intermarriage with the Chamar community. Their clans, referred to as gots from the Sanskrit gotra, include the Biswan, Sinh and Suman Mochi.^{[citation needed]}
