Daudpotra (alternatively Daudpota or Daudputra; literally "Sons of Daud") is a Muslim clan found in south Punjab and north-western Sindh provinces of Pakistan.[1][2]

The Nawabs of Bahawalpur belonged to this clan.[3] The city of Shikarpur in Sindh was founded by the Daudpotra tribe.[4] They were considered a powerful tribe in the 17th century Lower Sindh.[5] The Daudpotra are closely related to the Kalhora tribe.[6]
