Chitrapur Saraswats are a small Konkani-speaking community of Hindu Brahmins in India. They are traditionally found along the Kanara coast and call themselves Bhanaps in the Konkani language.

This is a small community from India spread the world over. They have taken names of villages in Karnataka as surnames. So, their recent history is associated with the State of Karnataka. But some researchers like Bertrand Renaud and Frank Conlon believe they migrated from the banks of River Saraswati in north India. The estimated population of this community is roughly 25,000. The community members refer to themselves as "Bhanaps". The community also has a magazine published every month called Kanara Saraswat from Mumbai which carries articles by members and other news concerning the community. The contribution of the Chitrapur Saraswats are well known among famous and prominent personalities like Karnad Sadashiv Rao, Benegal Narsing Rau who played a key role in drafting the Indian Constitution, Benegal Rama Rau, 4th RBI Governor, Air Chief Marshal Lakshman Madhav Katre, Smt. Kamaladevi Chattopadhyay , Padma Vibhushan, Ramon Magsaysay and UNESCO Awards social reformer and freedom activist and Sir Narayan Chandavarkar.
