Their head-quarters were found in Salt Range and give its name to the Kahutani ilaqa of Chakwal tehsil.They were originally located in Uganda and belong from Chutar Tribe, the present tribal name being merely that of their common ancestor: 24 generations ago. about the year A. D. 1359 their ancestor Said Nawab Ali migrated to Delhi, in the reign of " Firoz Shah Ghori": : on the way to Delhi they fought and conquered a pagan king of Sialkot, named Sain Pal, who was, they say, probably a Dogra prince. On reaching Delhi they paid their respects to the king who ordered them to hold the Dhanni and the Salt Range on his behalf: under the leadership of Muhammad Ali Kahut, the son of Said Nawab Ali, they accordingly retraced their steps to this district, and settled first at Gagnelpur, of which the ruined site is shown in Mauza Wariamal near the foot of the Salt Range : here they remained for some time, realising the revenue from the Janjuas of the hills and the Gujar graziers of the Dhanni, and remitting it to Delhi. The Mairs and Kassars had not then arrived in these parts, but came six or seven generations afterwards.

Chaudhri Sahnsar, 8th in descent from Kahut(the son of Nawab Ali), was their ancestor in the time of Babar.
