Following is a response from Senior DHS Specialist, Fred Arnold:

Both of those castes were included in the NFHS-1 caste list, which came directly from the 1931 Census. You have to look in List III (Showing Sub-divisions and Synonyms Included in List I). Code 1968 is Maratha, code 1969 is Maratha Sudha, and code 2307 is Mahar.
