Sarup Kumar is Indian, Sanskrit in Origin.

Sarup Kumar combines two Sanskrit-derived elements. Sarup comes from Sanskrit svarūpa (sva “own” + rūpa “form”), meaning “one’s true form,” “nature,” or “beautiful appearance.” Through Hindi, Punjabi, and Bengali it appears as Sarup, Saroop, Swarup, and Swaroop. Kumar derives from Sanskrit kumāra, “boy, youth, prince,” long used across South Asia as a given name, middle element, or surname, and is also an epithet of the god Kārttikeya.

As a compound personal name, Sarup Kumar gained currency in the 20th century, especially in North India, where Kumar often serves as an honorific middle name. The component svarūpa is well attested in classical and Bhakti literature (e.g., Svarūpa Dāmodara). Variants of the full name include Swarup Kumar, Swaroop Kumar, and Saroop Kumar; southern forms may show Kumara. The combined sense suggests “princely youth of true form” or “embodiment of beauty.”
