This gotra started after Chola (चोल) rulers of Gujarat. [1] They find mention in Bhisma Parva in Mahabharata (See-Bhisma Parva in English). Bhisma Parva in Sanskrit shloka 58 mentions the province of Cholas along with Karnas, kuntalas etc. as under:

कर्णिकाः कुन्तिकाश चैव सौब्धिदा नलकालकाः
कौकुट्टकास तदा चॊलाः कॊङ्कणा मालवाणकाः ॥58 ॥


Kishkindha Kanda sarga 41 mentions about Cholas along with Andhras and Pundras on the bank of Godawari River as under:
