No, it is categorized under Special Backward caste based on financial status by the Govt. of India. In the Hindu varna system it might be placed under a higher caste. There are many tales regarding the origin of Koshti, some which believe it to be a Kshatriya community and some which believe it to be a Vysya. This community does not show any characteristic features of a tribe and hence cannot be categorized under schedules tribes, as per the research conducted by Pune University.
