Ahīnagu is a king of the line of Vivasvān, the solar line, descended from Śrī Rāma through his son Kuśa. He is the son of Devānīka and the father of Sudhanvā.

The Sūta gives the line after Rāma to the munis, each the son of the one before: Kuśa, Atithi, Nishadha, Nala, Nabha, Puṇḍarīka, Kshemadhanvā, Devānīka and Ahīnagu. After Ahīnagu came Sudhanvā, Śala, Ukya, Vajranābha and a second Nala. “These are the kings of the line of Vivasvān, rich in tejas.”
