Indira Devi (born as Indira Raje; 19 February 1892 – 6 September 1968) was the Maharani of the princely state of Cooch Behar, British India. She was born a princess of Baroda as the daughter of Maharaja Sayajirao Gaekwad III, by his second wife Chimnabai II.

She broke her arranged engagement to marry Jitendra Narayan and became daughter-in-law to Suniti Devi. Previously her engagement had been fixed to Madho Rao Scindia, Maharaja of Gwalior.

Following the death of her husband she became regent of Cooch Behar in 1922-1936 during the minority of her elder son Jagaddipendra Narayan. Her fourth child and second daughter, Princess Gayatri Devi, would later go on to become the Maharani of Jaipur.
