Golalare (Sanskrit गोलाराडे, Hindi गोलालारे ) is a Jain community of Bhadawar and Bundelkhand region in India. Their original center is the Bhind-Etawa region on the banks for the Chambal river. Some of them have migrated to Bundelkhand region

A section of the Golalare are now known as Kharaua. Some of the bhattarakas of Balatkara Gana who had a seat at Ater and Rura, were born in this community.

According to some of the inscriptions, the Golalare are descendants of the ancient Ikshvakus.
