Hello, I will try and review this article over the next few days. Please let me know @ Capankajsmilyo: your availability on this over the next week or two and I can help you walk through through the GA process.
The first thing to resolve on this would be the unresolved cleanup and maintenance tags for expansion and in the "Reception" section with the tag specifically on Neutrality. Please take a look at addressing these first. I'll start on reviewing first for formatting, manual of style, sources, images, etc. before reviewing content (as I have time for this). Thanks.

Also, I noticed several one-sentence paragraphs currently in the article such as in Temples and Jain literature. Can these be merged or reorganized to make the article less choppy?
I reorganized a few things in the lead to make it flow in separate paragraphs around belief and community. A couple things in the lead that I wasn't able to find cited somewhere in the article. Can you verify this?
"In the current era, this started with Rishabhdeva and concluded with Mahavira."
"Namokar Mantra is the most common and basic prayer in Jainism." -- mentioned later but does not include info on prevalence
Also, much of the info in "Practices" is not mentioned in the lead. Can you add a couple sentences to the lead summary on this?
For images, can you verify that this File:SamanathamAA.jpg has a permission on it or replace it with one that does (creative commons, etc.). Otherwise, images look good for use rationales. Some of these look to be "own work" when they should probably instead be listed under public domain. Take a look at the image I noted and see if it can be replaced/modified with a use rationale.

Main principles -- Good
Jain ethics and Five Main Vows -- Good
Practices --
Philosophy --
Liberation and Godhood --
History --
"The ancient city Pithunda, capital of Kalinga (modern Odisha), is described in the Jain text Uttaradhyana Sutra as an important centre at the time of Mahāvīra, and was frequented by merchants from Champa.[150] Rishabhanatha, the first tirthankara, was revered and worshiped in Pithunda and was known as the Kalinga Jina. Mahapadma Nanda (c. 450 – 362 BCE) conquered Kalinga and took a statue of Rishabha from Pithunda to his capital in Magadha. Jainism is said to have flourished under the Nanda Empire.[151]"
Community -- Sources and list looks good. May be better suited as prose per MoS.
Schools and branches -- A couple sort paragraphs here that could be addressed.
Jain literature -- Here there are also a few short-ish paragraphs that could be expanded upon. Sources and images look good.
Art and architecture -- Unaddressed tag here - page needed.
"A Jain temple, Derasar or Basadi is a place of worship for Jains. Jain temples are built with various architectural designs, [page needed] but there are mainly two type of Jain temples: Shikar-bandhi Jain temple (one with a dome), and Ghar Jain temple (Jain house temple – one without a dome)."
Few other short paragraphs, including the below..
"The 8th century Kazhugumalai temple marks the revival of Jainism in South India."
Reception -- okay, could use more work.
